Measuring the Entropy and Testing the Second Law of Thermodynamics

General Physics 2007-05-23 v1 Classical Physics

Abstract

Evidence implies that basic laws of thermodynamics must be tested by experiments. In this paper, an experiment is designed to measure the entropy of a system with at least one known (measurable) equation of state, especially the gas systems. Since the entropy can be measured now, the formulae related to the second law of thermodynamics can be examined by other experiments.
