Example of application of the method

Definition

If we consider the internal energy $U(V,S)$, it depends on two variables:

• The volume $V$
• The entropy $S$

Therefore, its variation can be expressed using the relationship:

$ df = \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial f }{\partial x }\right)_ y dx + \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial f }{\partial y }\right)_ x dy $



in the form:

$dU = \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial V }\right)_ S dV + \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial S }\right)_ V dS$



According to the first law of thermodynamics, we know that the variation of internal energy $dU$ is equal to:



From this, we can conclude that the slopes are the pressure $p$:

$\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial V }\right)_ S = -p$



and the temperature $T$:

$\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial S }\right)_ V = T$

To establish the relationships, thermodynamic potentials are introduced, which are potential energies that include or exclude certain forms of energy in a system, such as the energy associated with work $pV$ and the energy associated with entropy $TS$, which cannot be used to perform work.

In the case of enthalpy $H$, it corresponds to the internal energy of the system, which includes the movement of particles, but also incorporates the energy required to form the system, i.e., the work $pV$ done to establish it. Therefore, it is defined as:

The adiabatic lapse rate, given by

equation=12397

can be expressed in terms of enthalpy using the relationship

equation=12394

and the relationship

equation=12395

as

$\Gamma =\displaystyle\frac{\partial T}{\partial p}=\displaystyle\frac{\partial}{\partial p}\displaystyle\frac{\partial h}{\partial s}=\displaystyle\frac{\partial}{\partial s}\displaystyle\frac{\partial h}{\partial p}=\displaystyle\frac{\partial \alpha}{\partial s}$




therefore, the adiabatic lapse rate is

equation

Since the heat capacity at constant pressure is defined through enthalpy as

$c_p=\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial h }{\partial T }\right)_{ p , i }$



we have

equation=12394

which implies

$c_p=\displaystyle\frac{\partial h}{\partial T}=\displaystyle\frac{\partial h}{\partial s}\displaystyle\frac{\partial s}{\partial T}=T\displaystyle\frac{\partial s}{\partial T}$



thus, we have the relationship

equation

With the adiabatic lapse rate given by

equation=12398

we have

equation=12399

that the adiabatic lapse rate can be written as

$\Gamma=\displaystyle\frac{\partial \alpha }{\partial s }=\displaystyle\frac{\partial \alpha }{\partial T }\displaystyle\frac{\partial T }{\partial s }=\displaystyle\frac{ T }{ c_p }\displaystyle\frac{\partial \alpha }{\partial T }$



we have

equation

With the definition of the specific volume

equation=11984

and the relationship for thermal expansion given by

equation=11980

the derivative of the specific volume with respect to the adiabatic lapse rate, expressed as

equation=12400

can be expressed as

Examples

Thermodynamics is the science of 'small steps', where one explores the behavior of a physical system by making variations on known functions f. To do this:

- The dependence of a function on parameters (e.g., $x$ and $y$) is determined, that is, $f(x, y)$.
- Each of these parameters is varied (e.g., $dx$ and $dy$), and the corresponding slope of the variation is identified.
- The aim is to find the relationship between the slope and the already established relationships within thermodynamics.

Mathematically, this is expressed as list:

kyon

The expression

$D_{x, y}f\equiv\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial f }{\partial x }\right)_ y$

represents the slope in the x-direction with the other variables held constant (in this case, y). It is read as 'partial derivative of f with respect to x, with y held constant'.

In order to calculate the various parameters, it is necessary to be able to differentiate the Gibbs potential, which corresponds to the slopes of this function with respect to pressure or temperature.

In general, the Gibbs potential factors, denoted as $g_x$, are defined with $x$ representing the variable and $g$ representing the molar Gibbs free energy, as follows:

kyon

For the calculation of various parameters, it is necessary to be able to take second-order derivatives of the Gibbs potential, which corresponds to the curvatures of this function with respect to pressure and/or temperature.

In general, the factors of the Gibbs potential are defined as follows:

kyon

If we consider the internal energy $U(V,S)$, it depends on two variables:

• The volume $V$
• The entropy $S$

Therefore, its variation can be expressed using the relationship:

equation=12388

in the form:

$dU = \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial V }\right)_ S dV + \left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial S }\right)_ V dS$



According to the first law of thermodynamics, we know that the variation of internal energy $dU$ is equal to:

equation=3545

From this, we can conclude that the slopes are the pressure $p$:

$\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial V }\right)_ S = -p$



and the temperature $T$:

$\left(\displaystyle\frac{\partial U }{\partial S }\right)_ V = T$

To establish the relationships, thermodynamic potentials are introduced, which are potential energies that include or exclude certain forms of energy in a system, such as the energy associated with work $pV$ and the energy associated with entropy $TS$, which cannot be used to perform work.

In the case of enthalpy $H$, it corresponds to the internal energy of the system, which includes the movement of particles, but also incorporates the energy required to form the system, i.e., the work $pV$ done to establish it. Therefore, it is defined as:

equation=3480

In addition to the thermodynamic potential itself, its molar version can be defined by simply dividing its magnitude by the molar mass. In the case of enthalpy $H$, this is defined as

kyon

where $M_m$ is the molar mass.

The enthalpy depends on the pressure $p$, entropy $h$, and in our case, also on the salt concentration $i$. Therefore, the respective differences $dh$, $dp$, and $di$ must satisfy:

kyon

It has been determined that the molar enthalpy $h$ varies as a function of molar entropy $s$, pressure $p$, and salinity $i$ as follows:

kyon

The slope of the molar enthalpy $h$ with respect to entropy is equal to the temperature $T$:

kyon

The slope of the molar enthalpy $h$ with respect to entropy is equal to the pressure $p$:

kyon

The slope of the molar enthalpy $h$ with respect to entropy is equal to salinity $s$:

kyon

The stability of seawater is characterized by the so-called adiabatic lapse rate, which is directly related to the problem of temperature and salinity gradients that can destabilize the marine water column.

The adiabatic lapse rate is defined as:

kyon

The adiabatic lapse rate can be calculated using the effective volume $\alpha$ and the specific heat at constant pressure $c_p$ as follows:

kyon

The molar entropy varies with temperature according to the following relationship:

kyon

The adiabatic lapse rate can be calculated using the equation:

kyon

where $T$ is the temperature, $c_p$ is the specific heat capacity at constant pressure, and $\partial\alpha/\partial T$ is the variation of the relative volume with respect to temperature.

The adiabatic lapse rate can be calculated using the temperature $T$, the specific heat capacity at constant pressure $c_p$, the thermal expansion coefficient $k_T$, and the density $\rho$, as follows:

kyon
