Download Solution PDFExplanation:
Kelvin Planck's Law: It is impossible for any system to operate in a thermodynamic cycle and deliver a net amount of work to its surroundings while receiving energy by heat transfer from a single thermal reservoir.
- It gives the concept of heat engine hence, it is a conversion of heat into work.
Important Points
Thermal reservoir: it is a special kind of system that always remains at a constant temperature even though energy is added or removed by heat transfer.
Heat Engine: Heat engine works on Kelvin Planck’s statement of the second law of thermodynamics.
- A heat engine is a reversible engine working in a cycle produces net work while operating between two thermal reservoirs.
- A heat engine produces work while exchanging heat from a higher temperature to a lower temperature reservoir.
Additional Information
Clausius statement: It is impossible for any system to operate in such a way that the sole result would be an energy transfer by heat from a cooler to a hotter body.
- Refrigeration is based on Clausius's statement of the second law of thermodynamics.
