It is known that the correct formulation of rational thermodynamics for mixtures requires an inequality more general than the Clausius-Duhem principle. On the other hand, in a recent paper on the thermodynamics of “interstitial working”[2] it was pointed out the need to correct the classical balance law of internal energy. There is no good reason for modifying both, however. It is worth to derive, hence, the most general expression of the Second Law by keeping the First in its classical form, as shown in a previous paper [4], or, what is the object of this article, to look for the most general formulation of the First Law assuming the Clausius-Duhem inequality as the Second. As a consequence of results obtained here, the statement of the First Principle needs not to be changed in the class of “simple material”. Thus, it is worth noting that a generalized expression of the First Law applies only non-simple materials, like as Korteweg fluids.

Abstract
It is known that the correct formulation of rational thermodynamics for mixtures requires an inequality more general than the Clausius-Duhem principle. On the other hand, in a recent paper on the thermodynamics of “interstitial working”[2] it was pointed out the need to correct the classical balance law of internal energy. There is no good reason for modifying both, however. It is worth to derive, hence, the most general expression of the Second Law by keeping the First in its classical form, as shown in a previous paper [4], or, what is the object of this article, to look for the most general formulation of the First Law assuming the Clausius-Duhem inequality as the Second. As a consequence of results obtained here, the statement of the First Principle needs not to be changed in the class of “simple material”. Thus, it is worth noting that a generalized expression of the First Law applies only non-simple materials, like as Korteweg fluids.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
