Unless Connected to Relativity the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics are Incompatible

Jean-Louis Tane

The first part of this paper is a condensed synthesis of the matter presented in several previous ones. It begins with an argumentation showing that the first and second laws of th…

Thermodynamics and Relativity: Possible Consequences of their Close Link

Jean-Louis Tane

The first part of this paper is a summary of a hypothesis previously advanced, suggesting the existence of a close link between thermodynamics and relativity. The second part is a…

Thermodynamics and Relativity: A Message to Physics Teachers (for an easier understanding of the thermodynamic theory)

Jean-Louis Tane

Whoever has to learn or to teach thermodynamics is confronted with conceptual difficulties which are specific to this field of physics ([1],[2]). It seems that they can be eliminat…

Thermodynamics and Relativity: A Revised Interpretation of the Concepts of Reversibility and Irreversibility

Jean-Louis Tane

It is generally admitted in thermodynamics that, for a given change in volume, the work done by a system is greater in conditions of reversibility than in conditions of irreversibi…

An Extended Interpretation of the Thermodynamic Theory Including an Additional Energy Associated with a Decrease in Mass

Volodymyr Krasnoholovets, Jean-Louis Tane

Although its practical efficiency is unquestionable, the thermodynamic tool presents a slight inconsistency from the theoretical point of view. After exposing arguments, which expl…

Thermodynamics and Relativity, A Condensed Explanation of their Close Connection

Jean-Louis Tane

Although its practical efficiency is unquestionable, it is well known that thermodynamics presents conceptual difficulties from the theoretical point of view. It is shown that the…
