...Warmetheorie, vol. ip 127. for convertible circular processes. At that time I derived it from the maxim that heat cannot of itself pass from a colder to a hotter body. I afterwards* derived the same equation in a very different way, namely from the law cited above, that...

...hotter one. Clausius has, no doubt, since extended his original statement, so as to make it stand thus : Heat cannot of itself pass from a colder to a hotter body. We do not consider even this sufficiently obvious for an axiom, were it certainly true, but, as will...

...all conceivable circumstances. He thereupon propounded the following as a fundamental principle : " Heat cannot, of itself, pass from a colder to a hotter body." The words - of itself,' here used for the sake of brevity, require, in order to be completely understood,...

...hotter body without compensation, and without the expenditure of work. The axiom of Clausius, that heat cannot of itself pass from a colder to a hotter body, and the similar axiom of Thomson, are thus only true with regard to radiations, if the velocity of...
