Thermodynamics MOC

Extensive and intensive parameters

Consider two thermodynamic systems 𝑆1 and 𝑆2 with parameters 𝐸𝑖,𝑇𝑖,𝑉𝑖,𝑝𝑖, &c. An extensive parameter 𝐸𝑖,𝑉𝑖 is additive if the two systems are combined. An intensive parameter 𝑇𝑖,𝑝𝑖 remains unchanged if a single system is doubled, i.e. cloned and brought into thermal contact with its clone.
