    Graduate Tricky heat calculation from the 1850s

    It's much clearer now ! Thank so much ! :bow: I really hadn't understood he was trying to express what you have denoted F(v_d,t_d) in terms of F(v_a,t_a).

    Graduate Tricky heat calculation from the 1850s

    Graduate Tricky heat calculation from the 1850s

    Hi everyone ! I'm calling for help, for I have been unable to make sense of 1850s calculus ! In the Mechanical Theory of Heat, R. Clausius introduces the mathematical expression of internal energy by investigating an infinitesimal Carnot cycle (that is to say all volume variations are...
