Definitions

n.名词 noun
  1. 1
    • : the science concerned with the relations between heat and mechanical energy or work, and the conversion of one into the other: modern thermodynamics deals with the properties of systems for the description of which temperature is a necessary coordinate.

Examples

  • Ross has ingeniously located much of modern physics in the Bible, including the laws of thermodynamics and the Big Bang.

  • The result was the second fundamental law of thermodynamics.

  • Long did thermodynamics confine itself to the study of the dilatation of bodies and their changes of state.

  • It is obvious in mechanics and thermodynamics, and the theory of matter is another very good instance.

  • So that the terms introduced by Carnot in the second law of thermodynamics, viz.

  • If a should be a function of the temperature, it follows from thermodynamics that it would be equal to (a - Tda/dT) (1/vl - 1/vv).
