Thermodynamics Is That Branch of Science, Which Deals With Conversion of Heat Energy Into

Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and other forms of energy. It describes how thermal energy is converted to and from other forms of energy and how it affects matter. Thermal energy is the energy a substance or system has due to its temperature, which is the energy of moving or vibrating molecules. Thermodynamics involves measuring this energy, which can be complicated, but large systems at equilibrium can be described with just a few key variables like mass, pressure, and volume. Thermodynamics deals with the conversion of heat energy into other forms of energy and quantitatively describes these conversions.

In Layman Terms,

Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and
other forms of energy. In particular, it describes how thermal energy is converted to and
from other forms of energy and how it affects matter.

Thermal energy is the energy a substance or system has due to its temperature, i.e., the
energy of moving or vibrating molecules, according to the Energy Education website of the
Texas Education Agency. Thermodynamics involves measuring this energy, which can be
"exceedingly complicated," according to David McKee, a professor of physics at Missouri
Southern State University. "The systems that we study in thermodynamics … consist of very
large numbers of atoms or molecules interacting in complicated ways. But, if these systems
meet the right criteria, which we call equilibrium, they can be described with a very small
number of measurements or numbers. Often this is idealized as the mass of the system, the
pressure of the system, and the volume of the system, or some other equivalent set of
numbers. Three numbers describe 1026 or 1030 nominal independent variables."

Thermodynamics is that branch of science ,which deals with conversion of heat energy into
other form of energies and describe their conversions quantitatively.Initially
,thermodynamics was means to deal with conversions from heat energy into mechanical
work and vice versa.since we know that different manifestations of energy are inter
convertible, according to the law of conservation of energy, the scope of thermodynamics
have been enlarged to cover conversion of heat energy to other forms mechanical,
electrical, magnetic , chemical etc.The thermodynamics deals with innumerable phenomena
covering the different branches of physics ,chemistry and engineering.

Thermodynamics deals with macroscopic particles like pressure, temperature, volume,


internal energy of the system and does not deal with internal structure and nature of
motion of the particles (atoms, molecules etc) of the system. The study of thermodynamics
is based upon experimentally derived laws, called of thermodynamics.
