Bound energy

Description

The bound energy change in a closed system is that part of the energy change that is always bound to an exchange of heat,

βˆ†B = βˆ†U - βˆ†A [Eq. 1]
βˆ†B = βˆ†H - βˆ†G [Eq. 2]

The free energy change (Helmoltz or Gibbs; βˆ†A or βˆ†G) is the total energy change (total inner energy or enthalpy, βˆ†U or βˆ†H) of a system minus the bound energy change.

Therefore, if a process occurs at equilibrium, when βˆ†G = 0 (at constant gas pressure), then βˆ†H = βˆ†B, and at βˆ†eW = 0 (βˆ†H = βˆ†eQ + βˆ†eW; see energy) we obtain the definition of the bound energy as the heat change taking place in an equilibrium process (eq),

βˆ†B = Tβˆ™βˆ†S = βˆ†eQeq [Eq. 3]

History

  • From Kubo 1976 North-Holland: "Free energy" is due to H. van Helmholtz (1882), and means that part of the internal energy that can be converted into work, as seen in the equation dF = dA for an isothermal quasi-static process. It was customary to call the remaining part, TdS, of the internal energy, dU = dF+TdS, the gebundene Energie (bound energy), but this is not so common now.
  • Recalling the term bound energy helps to resolve one of the historic battles in thermodynamics [2].
