thermodynamic equilibrium

An isolated system is in thermodynamic equilibrium when its state does not change with time.

At thermodynamic equilibrium, are all statistically independent of each other.

That property of systems which determines whether they are in thermodynamic equilibrium.

If the flows stop, the system is dead (in thermodynamic equilibrium).

There is an important distinction between thermal and thermodynamic equilibrium.

It is useful to distinguish between global and local thermodynamic equilibrium.

Therefore, the universe is not in thermodynamic equilibrium and objects can do physical work.

For example, local thermodynamic equilibrium in a liquid is reached within a few collision times.

For a completely isolated system, S is maximum at thermodynamic equilibrium.

Such a composite system is in a homogeneous thermodynamic equilibrium.

Thermodynamic equilibrium is one of the most important concepts for thermodynamics.

Thermodynamic equilibrium is characterized by the free energy for the whole (closed) system being a minimum.

Due to these infinitesimal changes, the system is in thermodynamic equilibrium throughout the entire process.

Two bodies of unequal temperature when in contact will move toward thermodynamic equilibrium.

They can reach thermodynamic equilibrium when they are allowed also to exchange work.

Transport phenomena are processes that lead a system from local to global thermodynamic equilibrium.

These can then grow until thermodynamic equilibrium is restored.

It must have reached thermodynamic equilibrium over the years, and represents the most stable state for this composition.

Real world systems are often not in thermodynamic equilibrium and not homogeneous.

An early insight is that an autonomous agent must be displaced from thermodynamic equilibrium.

It is of interest to explain how the thermodynamic equilibrium is attained.

It has a special interest in systems that are individually in states of thermodynamic equilibrium.

Obviously, there is no reason to expect such a composite system to be in a homogeneous thermodynamic equilibrium.

At thermodynamic equilibrium, a system's properties are, by definition, unchanging in time.

For a system with controlled constant temperature and pressure, G is minimum at thermodynamic equilibrium.
