6.5 Irreversibility, Entropy Changes, and ``Lost Work''
Consider a system in contact with a heat reservoir during a reversible process. If there is heat absorbed by the reservoir at temperature , the change in entropy of the reservoir is . In general, reversible processes are accompanied by heat exchanges that occur at different temperatures. To analyze these, we can visualize a sequence of heat reservoirs at different temperatures so that during any infinitesimal portion of the cycle there will not be any heat transferred over a finite temperature difference.
During any infinitesimal portion, heat will be transferred between the system and one of the reservoirs which is at . If is absorbed by the system, the entropy change of the system is
The entropy change of the reservoir isThe total entropy change of system plus surroundings isThis is also true if there is a quantity of heat rejected by the system.The conclusion is that for a reversible process, no change occurs in the total entropy produced, i.e., the entropy of the system plus the entropy of the surroundings: .
We now carry out the same type of analysis for an irreversible process, which takes the system between the same specified states as in the reversible process. This is shown schematically in Figure 6.7, with and denoting the irreversible and reversible processes. In the irreversible process, the system receives heat and does work . The change in internal energy for the irreversible process is
For the reversible processThe change in entropy for any process that leads to a transformation between an initial state ``a'' and a final state ``b'' is therefore
where is the heat exchanged in the actual process. The equality only applies to a reversible process.The difference represents work we could have obtained, but did not. It is referred to as lost work and denoted by . In terms of this quantity we can write,
The content of Equation (6.4) is that the entropy of a system can be altered in two ways: (i) through heat exchange and (ii) through irreversibilities. The lost work ( in Equation (6.4)) is always greater than zero, so the only way to decrease the entropy of a system is through heat transfer.
To apply the second law we consider the total entropy change (system plus surroundings). If the surroundings are a reservoir at temperature , with which the system exchanges heat,
The total entropy change isThe quantity ( ) is the entropy generated due to irreversibility.Yet another way to state the distinction we are making is
or | ||
Equation (6.5) can also be written as a rate equation,
The term
Muddy Points
Do we ever see an absolute variable for entropy? So far, we have worked with deltas only (MP 6.8)
I am confused as to as opposed to .(MP 6.9)
For irreversible processes, how can we calculate if not equal to ?(MP 6.10)
