Theoretical test of Jarzynski's equality for reversible volume-switching processes of an ideal gas system

초록

We present an exact theoretical test of Jarzynski's equality (JE) for reversible volume-switching processes of an ideal gas system. The exact analysis shows that the prediction of JE for the free energy difference is the same as the work done on the gas system during the reversible process that is dependent on the shape of path of the reversible volume-switching process. © 2007 The American Physical Society.
