- W1484410033 abstract "OPINIONS will differ as to the merits of the title which Lt.-Commr. Wheeler has chosen for this volume. The extreme relativist, who regards the notion of force derived from our muscular sensations as a relic of animism, will no doubt condemn it. “To-day we have dispossessed the demons, but the ghost of a muscular pull still holds the planets in place.”1 On the other hand, the student of either physics or engineering will welcome any suggestion which assists him in understanding the nature of the “ghostly quantity,” entropy. “The more shadowy the conception to be visualised, the greater the need of a definite material analogy.” The quotation is from the instructive presidential address to the Physical Society of London delivered by Prof. Callendar in 1911. Here it is pointed out that the caloric theory is perfectly consistent with Carnot's principle and with the mechanical theory for all reversible processes. The quantity measured in an ordinary calorimetric experiment is the motive power or energy of the caloric, and not the caloric itself. Prof. Callendar identifies caloric with the “thermodynamic function” of Rankine, or the “entropy” of Clausius." @default.
