Must Be in an Equilibrium State No Flow or Turbulence Independent of History No Thermal Gradients
Simple System Macroscopically homogeneous, isotropic, uncharged, and chemically inert, that [is] sufficiently large that surface effects can be neglected, and that are not acted upon by electric, magnetic or gravitational fields. Herbert B. Callen
Why a Limited Number of Variables?
Mechanical Equivalent of Heat Heat Flows: High Temp – to – Low Temp Work – to – Heat 100% Efficient

Second Law (Kelvin Statement) Lord Kelvin (1824 – 1907)
Second Law (Clausius Statement) Rudolf Clausius (1822 – 1888)
Equivalence of 2nd Law Statements Assume the Clausius Stmt is Wrong
Assume the Kelvin Stmt is Wrong
Can Qh and Qc Have the Same Sign?
Can Irrev Engine be more Effec than Rev Engine?
