Description

This lecture covers the Carnot cycle, as introduced by Sadi Carnot in 1824, focusing on the generation of mechanical work through a cycle with two adiabatic and two isothermal transformations. It explains the concept of a Carnot machine, the calculation of work, and the relationship between heat exchanges and temperatures during the cycle.
