Free entropy

The most common examples are:

Note that the use of the terms "Massieu" and "Planck" for explicit Massieu-Planck potentials are somewhat obscure and ambiguous. In particular "Planck potential" has alternative meanings. The most standard notation for an entropic potential is ${\displaystyle \psi }$ , used by both Planck and Schrödinger. (Note that Gibbs used ${\displaystyle \psi }$  to denote the free energy.) Free entropies where invented by French engineer François Massieu in 1869, and actually predate Gibbs's free energy (1875).

${\displaystyle S=S(U,V,\{N_{i}\})}$ 

By the definition of a total differential,

${\displaystyle dS={\frac {\partial S}{\partial U}}dU+{\frac {\partial S}{\partial V}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}{\frac {\partial S}{\partial N_{i}}}dN_{i}.}$ 

From the equations of state,

${\displaystyle dS={\frac {1}{T}}dU+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}.}$ 

The differentials in the above equation are all of extensive variables, so they may be integrated to yield

${\displaystyle S={\frac {U}{T}}+{\frac {PV}{T}}+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}N}{T}}\right).}$ 

${\displaystyle \Phi =S-{\frac {U}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle \Phi ={\frac {U}{T}}+{\frac {PV}{T}}+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}N}{T}}\right)-{\frac {U}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle \Phi ={\frac {PV}{T}}+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}N}{T}}\right)}$ 

Starting over at the definition of ${\displaystyle \Phi }$  and taking the total differential, we have via a Legendre transform (and the chain rule)

${\displaystyle d\Phi =dS-{\frac {1}{T}}dU-Ud{\frac {1}{T}},}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Phi ={\frac {1}{T}}dU+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}-{\frac {1}{T}}dU-Ud{\frac {1}{T}},}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Phi =-Ud{\frac {1}{T}}+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}.}$ 

The above differentials are not all of extensive variables, so the equation may not be directly integrated. From ${\displaystyle d\Phi }$  we see that

${\displaystyle \Phi =\Phi ({\frac {1}{T}},V,\{N_{i}\}).}$ 

If reciprocal variables are not desired,^[3]: 222

${\displaystyle d\Phi =dS-{\frac {TdU-UdT}{T^{2}}},}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Phi =dS-{\frac {1}{T}}dU+{\frac {U}{T^{2}}}dT,}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Phi ={\frac {1}{T}}dU+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}-{\frac {1}{T}}dU+{\frac {U}{T^{2}}}dT,}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Phi ={\frac {U}{T^{2}}}dT+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i},}$ 

${\displaystyle \Phi =\Phi (T,V,\{N_{i}\}).}$ 

${\displaystyle \Xi =\Phi -{\frac {PV}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle \Xi ={\frac {PV}{T}}+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}N}{T}}\right)-{\frac {PV}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle \Xi =\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}N}{T}}\right)}$ 

Starting over at the definition of ${\displaystyle \Xi }$  and taking the total differential, we have via a Legendre transform (and the chain rule)

${\displaystyle d\Xi =d\Phi -{\frac {P}{T}}dV-Vd{\frac {P}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Xi =-Ud{\frac {2}{T}}+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}-{\frac {P}{T}}dV-Vd{\frac {P}{T}}}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Xi =-Ud{\frac {1}{T}}-Vd{\frac {P}{T}}+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}.}$ 

The above differentials are not all of extensive variables, so the equation may not be directly integrated. From ${\displaystyle d\Xi }$  we see that

${\displaystyle \Xi =\Xi \left({\frac {1}{T}},{\frac {P}{T}},\{N_{i}\}\right).}$ 

If reciprocal variables are not desired,^[3]: 222

${\displaystyle d\Xi =d\Phi -{\frac {T(PdV+VdP)-PVdT}{T^{2}}},}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Xi =d\Phi -{\frac {P}{T}}dV-{\frac {V}{T}}dP+{\frac {PV}{T^{2}}}dT,}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Xi ={\frac {U}{T^{2}}}dT+{\frac {P}{T}}dV+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i}-{\frac {P}{T}}dV-{\frac {V}{T}}dP+{\frac {PV}{T^{2}}}dT,}$ 

${\displaystyle d\Xi ={\frac {U+PV}{T^{2}}}dT-{\frac {V}{T}}dP+\sum _{i=1}^{s}\left(-{\frac {\mu _{i}}{T}}\right)dN_{i},}$ 

${\displaystyle \Xi =\Xi (T,P,\{N_{i}\}).}$
