Time evolution of the pulsed HF chemical laser system. II. Irreversible thermodynamic analysis

The time rates of change of level populations and radiation densities derived from a detailed kinetic model of the F + H₂ → HF + H laser are employed as input data for a time dependent thermodynamic analysis of this system. The laser is regarded as an irreversible heat engine generating thermodynamic work in the form of laser light. The development in time of the thermodynamic functions, efficiency and irreversible entropy production is determined by computing the contributions of pumping, radiation and relaxation to the entropy and energy of the lasing molecules. Effects of specific rate processes are evaluated by considering different kinetic schemes, i.e. different combinations of kinetic processes and initial conditions. It is shown, among others, that a laser without relaxation processes (“frictionless”) has poor efficiency despite the absence of energy losses and the low irreversible entropy production. On the other hand, the efficiency is high in lasers governed by fast rotational relaxation. This is because rotational relaxation, though leading to some energy losses and irreversible entropy production, compensates for the entropy decrease of the system (while lasing under partially inverted populations) by increasing the bath entropy. The major general conclusion of the analysis is that the thermodynamic constraints related to the kinetic scheme and not the extent of irreversibility of the lasing process is the crucial factor in determining the laser efficiency.     

Relative Boltzmann entropy, evolution equations for fluctuations of thermodynamic intensive variables, and a statistical mechanical representation of the zeroth law of thermodynamics

Generalized thermodynamics or extended irreversible thermodynamics presumes the existence of thermodynamic intensive variables (e.g., temperature, pressure, chemical potentials, generalized potentials) even if the system is removed from equilibrium. It is necessary to properly understand the nature of such intensive variables and, in particular, of their fluctuations, that is, their deviations from those defined in the extended irreversible thermodynamic sense. The meaning of temperature is examined by means of a kinetic theory of macroscopic irreversible processes to assess the validity of the generalized (or extended) thermodynamic method applied to nonequilibrium phenomena. The Boltzmann equation is used for the purpose. Since the relative Boltzmann entropy has been known to be intimately related to the evolution of the aforementioned fluctuations in the intensive thermodynamic variables, we derive the evolution equations for such fluctuations of intensive variables to lay the foundation for investigating the physical implications and evolution of the relative Boltzmann entropy, so that the range of validity of the thermodynamic theory of irreversible processes can be elucidated. Within the framework of this work, we examine a special case of the evolution equations for the aforementioned fluctuations of intensive variables, which also facilitate investigation of the molecular theory meaning of the zeroth law of thermodynamics. We derive an evolution equation describing the relaxation of temperature fluctuations from its local value and present a formula for the temperature relaxation time.     

Freezing-in and production of entropy in vitrification

Following the classical concepts developed by Simon [Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 203, 219 (1931)], vitrification in the cooling of glass-forming melts is commonly interpreted as the transformation of a thermodynamically (meta)stable equilibrium system into a frozen-in, thermodynamically nonequilibrium system, the glass. Hereby it is assumed that the transformation takes place at some well-defined sharp temperature, the glass transition temperature Tg. However, a more detailed experimental and theoretical analysis shows that the transition to a glass proceeds in a broader temperature range, where the characteristic times of change of temperature, tauT=-(TT), and relaxation times, tau, of the system to the respective equilibrium states are of similar order of magnitude. In this transition interval, the interplay of relaxation and change of external control parameters determines the value of the structural order parameters. In addition, irreversible processes take place in the transition interval, resulting both in an entropy freezing-in as well as in an irreversible increase of entropy and, as a result, in significant changes of all other thermodynamic parameters of the vitrifying systems. The effect of entropy production on glass transition and on the properties of glasses is analyzed here for the first time. In this analysis, the structural order-parameter concept as developed by de Donder and van Rysselberghe [Thermodynamic Theory of Affinity (Stanford University Press, Stanford, 1936)] and Prigogine and Defay [Chemical Thermodynamics (Longmans, London, 1954)] is employed. In the framework of this approach we obtain general expressions for the thermodynamic properties of vitrifying systems such as heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs' free energy, and for the entropy production. As one of the general conclusions we show that entropy production has a single maximum upon cooling and two maxima upon heating in the glass transition interval. The theoretical concepts developed allow us to explain in addition to the thermodynamic parameters also specific features of the kinetic parameters of glass-forming melts such as the viscosity. Experimental results are presented which confirm the theoretical conclusions. Further experiments are suggested, allowing one to test several additional predictions of the theory.     

Effect of counterion on thermodynamic micellar properties of tetradecylpyridinium in aqueous solutions

Electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions of tetradecylpyridinium bromide and chloride has been measured as a function of surfactant molal concentration and temperature. From the molal dependence of conductivity, the critical micelle concentration and the micellar ionization degree were estimated. The temperature dependence of these parameters has been used for calculating the thermodynamic parameters related with the micellization process by using the classical charged pseudophase separation model. The effect of the counterion on the conventional thermodynamic potentials of micellization such as standard Gibbs free energy, enthalpy and entropy has also been a matter of study. Finally, the occurrence of the enthalpy–entropy compensation phenomenon was verified and the relevant parameters discussed.     

The rectified second law of thermodynamics

Equilibrium thermodynamics is combined with Jarzynski's irreversible work theorem to quantify the excess entropy produced by irreversible processes. The resulting rectified form of the second law parallels the first law, in the sense that it facilitates the experimental measurement of excess entropy changes resulting from irreversible work and heat exchanges, just as the first law quantifies energy changes produced by either reversible or irreversible work and heat exchanges. The general form of the rectified second law is further applied to a broad class of quasi-static irreverisble (QSI) processes, for which all of the thermodynamic functions of both the system and surroundings remain continuously well-defined, thus facilitating excess entropy measurements by integrating exact differential functions along QSI paths. The results are illustrated by calculating the mechanical and thermal excess entropy produced by the irreversible unfolding of an RNA molecule.     

Adsorption of dioctyldimethylammonium chloride at water/hexane interface

The adsorption behavior of dioctyldimethylammonium chloride at water/ hexane interface has been studied by measuring the interfacial tension as a function of temperature and pressure at various bulk concentrations. By applying the thermodynamics of adsorption at interfaces to the experimental results, the thermodynamic quantity changes associated with adsorption and the interfacial density of dioctyldimethylammonium chloride have been evaluated.The interfacial tension vs temperature and concentration curves have shown the breaks and it has been concluded that the first order phase transition takes place between a gaseous and an expanded state. The entropy and volume changes associated with adsorption have shown the remarkable dependence on temperature and pressure and have been found to decrease with increasing the molality. Also the energy change associated with adsorption has been evaluated and it has been concluded that the adsorption of dioctyldimethylammonium chloride at water/hexane interface is enhanced by negative values of the partial molar energy change. Further, all the thermodynamic quantities have been characterized by the discontinuous change attributable to the phase transition.     

Rubber elasticity in the introductory thermodynamics course

An experimental set-up is described in which the temperature of a piece of rubber is measured with thin wire thermocouples. It measures and records the temperature change of the rubber as it heats and cools in response to elongation and contraction. This mechano-caloric effect arising from the entropy elasticity of rubber represents a reversible thermal process in clear distinction from most of other heat effects encountered in our daily experience where the irreversibility is inevitably involved. The demonstration experiment has been proved useful in elementary thermodynamic courses for introducing the entropy concept. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Adsorption of 1-Monoglycerides at the Hexane/Water Interface: II. 1-Monolaurin

The interfacial tension of a hexane solution of 1-monolaurin against water was measured as a function of temperature and concentration under atmospheric pressure. The thermodynamic quantity changes associated with the adsorption of 1-monolaurin were evaluated and compared with those of the previously reported 1-monomyristin. The decrease of two carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain results in a slight expansion of the 1-monolaurin adsorbed film and in a slight decrease in entropy and energy changes compared with those of the 1-monomyristin system. The large negative value of the entropy change at a high concentration is related to the restricted orientation of the polar head group of 1-monolaurin at the hexane/water interface due to the strong interaction between the large hydrophilic group of 1-monolaurin and the water molecules, as in the 1-monomyristin system. The origin of the distinction in the entropy change behavior between the adsorption from the hexane phase and water phase was discussed. The usefulness of an easier calculation process for the partial molar entropy change is verified by comparison with the usual reliable value and with the entropy of adsorption.     

Determining landscape-based criteria for freezing of liquids

The correlation between statistical properties of the energy landscape and the number of accessible configurational states, as measured by the exponential of the excess entropy (e(Se)), are studied in the case of a simple Lennard-Jones-type liquid in the neighborhood of the thermodynamic freezing transition. The excess entropy Se is defined as the difference between the entropy of the liquid and that of the ideal gas under identical temperature and pressure conditions and is estimated using the pair correlation contribution, S2. Landscape properties associated with three categories of configurations are considered: instantaneous configurations, inherent saddles, and inherent minima. Landscape properties studied include the energy and the key parameters of the Hessian eigenvalue distribution as well as the mean distances between instantaneous configurations and the corresponding inherent saddles and minima. The signatures of the thermodynamic freezing transition are clearest in the case of inherent structure properties which show, as a function of e(S2), a pronounced change in slope in the vicinity of the solid-liquid coexistence. The mean distance between instantaneous and saddle configurations also shows a similar change in slope when the system crosses from the stable to the supercooled regime. In the case of inherent saddles, the minimum eigenvalue acts as a similar indicator of the thermodynamic freezing transition but the average and maximum eigenvalues do not carry similar signatures. In the case of instantaneous configurations, a weak indicator of the thermodynamic freezing transition is seen in the behavior of the fraction of negative curvature directions as a function of the exponential of the excess entropy.
