Interpreting heat using information entropy












4












$begingroup$


In an answer to the post about Microscopic Definition of Heat and Work, Ronan says,




$$<dE> = sum epsilon_idp_i + p_idepsilon_i$$



We can see that the change in average energy is partly due to a change
in the distribution of probability of occurrence of microscopic state
$epsilon_i$ and partly due to a change in the eigen values $epsilon_i$ of the
N-particles microscopic eigen states.




and the first term corresponds to heat:
$$TdS = sum epsilon_idp_i.$$
I am having a hard time imagining what it means.
If the following is true:




  1. probabilities $p_i$ can not change the shape of Gibbs distribution if we assume that the new state is in equilibrium

  2. $sum p_i = 1$


then the temperature must have risen (without any work done)! Is that correct, or can anything else happen?

          When you heat a single-phase system without performing any work, then yes, the temperature must increase, which is interpreted as a change in the dispersion of energy levels.



          Some alternatives are:




          • A two-phase system, described by expanding the fundamental relation $dU=T,dS-P,dV+Sigma_imu_i,dN_i$ to include the final term, where $mu$ is the chemical potential and $N$ is the amount of stuff and where the temperature stays constant (in a first-order transition) even though the amount of each phase changes.


          • Doing work on a system, in which the energy levels might vary even though their dispersion is unchanged. An example is accelerating a mass, in which the speed of each constitute particle changes by a constant amount even though its speed relative to the center of mass remains the same, as does the temperature.
