Explain why the heat flow for a home is different in the winter vs. the summer.
When heat energy flows in any heat engine from a high-temperature place to a low-temperature place, part of this energy is transformed into work output.
24.5 Heat Engines and the Second Law
Thermal energy (or heat) is converted to mechanical energy out (work).
waste heat is exhausted.
Heat Engine PhysicsA steam turbine engine demonstrates the role of temperature difference between heat reservoir and sink.

Pressure does work on the turbine, causing it to turn
Thermal energy transferred to water reaches heat of vaporization—phase change of liquid to gas. Expanding gas increases pressure inside pipe
Original heat of vaporization is released when energy is transferred to the turbine. Gas condenses into liquid.
• 22. How do natural systems tend to proceed?
Natural systems tend to proceed toward a state of greater disorder.
The universe trends from a higher state to a lower state of organization.
Examples: Air flows from high to low pressureHeat flows from hot to cold
24.6 Order Tends to Disorder
According to the second law of thermodynamics, in the long run, the entropy of a system always increases for natural processes.
24.7 Entropy
Entropy is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system. Disorder increases; entropy increases.
24.7 Entropy
This run-down house demonstrates entropy. Without continual maintenance, the house will eventually fall apart.
