The Total Entropy of the Universe can never decrease On a macroscopic level one finds that adding heat raises entropy S Q T Defines temperature in Kelvin Why does Q flow from hot to cold Consider two systems one with TA and one with TB Allow Q 0 to flow from TA to TB Entropy changes by S Q TB Q TA This can only occur if S 0 requiring TA TB System will achieve more randomness by exchanging heat until TB TA Carnot Engine Carnot cycle is most efficient possible because the total entropy change is zero It is a reversible process For real engines S Senvironment Qcold Qhot 0 Tcold Thot W Qcold
