thermodynamics


The physical theory of heat and energy distribution in the universe. The two important laws of thermodynamics state that the total energy of the universe is constant and energy can neither be made nor destroyed, and that the distribution of energy in the universe over time proceeds from a state of order to a state of disorder (entropy increase).
