Energy equation: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:05, 21 June 2007

The energy equation is given, in classical thermodynamics, by

\left.{\frac {\partial U}{\partial V}}\right\vert _{T}=T\left.{\frac {\partial p}{\partial T}}\right\vert _{V}-p

{\frac {U^{\rm {ex}}}{N}}={\frac {\rho }{2}}\int _{0}^{\infty }\Phi (r)~{\rm {g}}(r)~4\pi r^{2}~{\rm {d}}r

where $\Phi (r)$ is a central potential, $U^{\rm {ex}}$ is the excess internal energy per particle, and ${\rm {g}}(r)$ is the pair distribution function.
