Thermodynamics is such a branch of science, and that is in the thermal science section and is all about energy transfer of heat from one body to another in the form of work and also the conversion of each other. When the energy transfers from one body to another then we could find some changes in the physical properties of the body. Usually,human beingsconsume heat as an input, and the output is what called work. Therefore thermodynamics is all about the ways to utilise heat in the most efficient ways into work and the opposite. This thermal science was discovered in the nineteenth century at the time when the steam engine was familiarised. At that time, the engine was huge and the efficiency and performance was very poor. Later on, to make the engines more better and efficient steam turrbines, I.C engines, gas turbines were introduced in the last few decades.
