When I began posting a little more than two years ago, I started about ten threads related to environmental chemistry (carbon sequestration, ocean acidification, nitrous oxide emission, etc.).

Into the Night constantly trolled them, with posts outnumbering mine more than three to one on my environmental chemistry threads.

ALWAYS invoking "thermodynamics"!

"You are ignoring thermodynamics." "You deny thermodynamics" "You are ignoring the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics" "Thermodynamics blah blah blah" "Blah blah blah thermodynamics"

All in the context of environmental chemistry.

NOW Into the Night has a chance to display mastery of thermodynamics on a thread that is NOT about chemistry.

A thread that specifically cited Into the Night's claims about "thermodynamics", including the assertion that helium cannot escape the atmosphere.

And defend the cryptic answer that "Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity" as the explanation for why it should not be theoretically possible for helium to leave the atmosphere.

(Fact check: Helium DOES leave the atmosphere)

RQAA. Stop mindlessly repeating the question, Sock. It's already been answered.

Stop spamming.




Right! You already answered the question...

"Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity."

Do you even know what thermodynamics IS?

Nothing you write suggests that you have any idea.


So, all the reports are wrong about how much helium has escaped from the atmosphere.

Because "thermodynamics does not cancel gravity".

The high bar for the kind of proof required to contradict the published science has not been met.

Shouldn't you at least give a number for which law of thermodynamics would be violated by helium leaving the atmosphere?[

Science is not a publication. When will you learn this? If I publish something and call it science, what threshold must be crossed to make it science?

Why do you believe published papers trump the 0th, 1st, and 2nd LoT, and the Stefan's Boltzman law? NONE of these have been falsified.

You cling to your climate change religion but these laws destroy you every time.

Why is your helium issue so urgent?




My "helium issue" is not "urgent".

My issue was having "thermodynamics" constantly invoked by members who trolled the environmental chemistry threads.

THIS thread was meant to provide a specific forum for the specific issue that kept coming up in the context of chemistry rather than physics.

Into the Night STILL claims that helium cannot leave the atmosphere, invoking "thermodynamics" as the explanation.

"Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity"

The published papers I believe do not "trump" ANY laws of thermodynamics.

The burden of proof is on anyone who claims that "thermodynamics" proves something that contradicts the published papers whose results have been shown to be reproducible by the Scientific Method.

Not that the helium issue is urgent, but do YOU have any opinion on how "thermodynamics" applies to whether or not helium can escape the atmosphere?

I didn't think so.

In case you forgot, YOU also trolled environmental chemistry threads, invoking "thermodynamics".

THIS is the thread where you can go ALL IN and cite the (zero?) law of thermodynamics to prove that virtually ALL the world's scientists are wrong.

HELIUM FUN FACTS

At least 1600 metric tons of He leave the atmosphere each year to outer space.

This is the most conservative (low end) estimate I could find.

The atmosphere is 5 ppm He.

1600 metric tons per year only represents 1 out of every 2 million metric tons of total He in the atmosphere.

If one were concerned that our atmosphere is losing precious helium, it might be dismissed as a negligible loss.

But then multiply it by 2 million years at that rate, and it is the entire 5 ppm of He in the atmosphere.

Multiply it by 2000 million years, and we lost 5000 ppm of He from the atmosphere.

The Earth's peak production of helium via alpha particle emission in nuclear reactions was LONG before 2000 million years ago.

And if there were 5000 ppm He in the atmosphere today, it would certainly be lost to outer space at a rate MUCH higher than 1600 metric tons per year.

Bullchit, can you not read?
Into the Night answered the question and cited the law which is violated by helium floating into outer space.

Dude, you're overdosing on Spam. It's overcooked so bad my dog won't even eat that shit.



My dyslexia must have prevented me from seeing where Into the Night answered the question and cited the law which is violated by helium floating into outer space.

The physic police need to arrest a lot of helium atoms for breaking the law.

The only answers that I saw to the question were:

"Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity."

Which was elaborated in a later post to:

"You cannot create energy out of nothing. Nothing in thermodynamics cancels gravity."


It didn't cite any law, but it indirectly describes the first law of thermodynamics.

GasGuzzler, can you remind me of any more explicit answer that I did not see?

Anyway, the entirety of Into the Night's explanation were these three sentences, as far as I could tell.

Not a very compelling argument. Not even a coherent argument.

Acknowledging the scientific fact that helium CAN escape the atmosphere does NOT imply that thermodynamics somehow "cancels gravity."

Anyway, I'm glad that it is being discussed on THIS thread, rather derailing every discussion on every other thread.

Does thermodynamics really prove that increasing the atmospheric concentration of a gas such as carbon dioxide cannot possibly result in an increase to air temperature at the Earth's surface?

No it does not. At least, not the kind of thermodynamics they taught me in physics classes at the University of California. Actually, I took physics courses at all three schools I got degrees from: Santa Cruz, Berkeley, and Davis.

What effs up every thread here is not classic thermodynamics.

It is neo thermodynamics, para thermodynamics, or just pseudo thermodynamics.

Google search keywords: Does helium leave the atmosphere?

"Helium is produced by radioactive decay of heavy elements within the earth's crust. Given the amount being produced and the estimated age of the earth, there should be very much more of it in the atmosphere than the present 4 to 5 parts per million. It is clear that it escapes, as indeed do other light gases."



Google may not be God, but why would they bother to participate in a conspiracy to lie about this issue?

Anyone who does this search will find hundreds of references, many of them peer-reviewed scientific papers, to verify the assertions of the summary paragraph.

Why would they all conspire to promote a lie?

"Helium is not created by fission." - Into the Night

A unilateral authoritative proclamation decrees that "helium is not created by fission".

The closest thing to a citable reference is the (clearly self evident) omniscience and scientific infallibility of the proclaimer.

Becoming more and more obvious that Into the Night doesn't really know ANYTHING about thermodynamics.

"Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity".

It is a very short list of things that DO cancel gravity.

And it is a very very very LONG list of things that science is NOT.

Be sure to keep us informed.

So, all the earth scientists are WRONG about the ORIGIN of helium as a product of heavy element fission reactions emitting alpha particles, AND they are WRONG that nearly all the helium that used to be in the atmosphere floated off into outer space.

How do we know?

Because Into the Night decrees it to be so.

And THAT is all the proof that anyone could ever need.

This thread was your opportunity to display your superior knowledge of thermodynamics.

Instead of making vague references to "thermodynamics" to hide your ignorance of chemistry on other threads, this was your chance to show your stuff.

It would appear that there is only ONE thing that you actually understand about thermodynamics.

"Thermodynamics does not cancel gravity"

Sounds like the title of a PhD dissertation, doesn't it?

G'wan! SCRAM!

I have no peer-reviewed scientific publications about thermodynamics.

I DO have widely-cited, peer-reviewed scientific publications about the biogeochemistry carbon and nitrogen cycling.

Many of the citations are in papers about climate change research, or applied biogeochemistry for climate change mitigation.

One of the most recent ones came out just over a month ago, in fact.

Published April 10, 2024.

B. Adamczyk. 2024. Tannins and climate change: Are tannins able to stabilize carbon in the soil? Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. Volume 72, Issue 16, Pages 8928-8932.


Cited my published research because I showed how tannins influence carbon and nitrogen cycling, most famously in a 1995 paper in the journal Nature.

I stuck to my own threads about biogeochemistry, and avoided the incessant discussion of "thermodynamics" on nearly every other thread on this website that even pretended to be about climate change or anything related to it.

But the "thermodynamics" discussion didn't steer clear of ME.

My threads were constantly trolled by the thermodynamics experts, constantly telling me that my biogeochemistry was all wrong because I was "ignoring the 1st law of thermodynamics".

So, I figured it makes sense to have a thread specifically dedicated to allowing the "resident science experts" to explain the "thermodynamics" connection.

So far, they have utterly failed to rise to the challenge.

Having, once again, read the post by Xadoman, I'm having trouble finding the sentence(s) where "He did deny the first law of thermodynamics, just as you do."

As I recall, the 1st LOT is something about how neither matter nor energy can be created or destroyed.

Perhaps your personal definition for the 1st law of thermodynamics should be clarified.

I'm very strongly suggesting that you don't understand it enough to even pull off a good bluff.

Or at least identify in a less vague and ambiguous manner HOW anything Xadoman said is a DENIAL of the first law of thermodynamics.

Just tell us that "RQAA", because you have already explained it all so clearly.

There is no such thing as 'average temperature'. Now you are discarding the 0th law of thermodynamics.

Does your cult leader agree with your most recent proclamations that contradict all the published science?

Does the cult leader agree that helium cannot possibly leave the atmosphere because the first law of thermodynamics does not cancel gravity?

Does the cult leader agree that radioactive decay of heavy elements that emit alpha particles during fission is NOT the source of helium released from the Earth's crust?

Relevant posts of this thread are compiled, beginning about 3/4 way down page 2, beginning with the post below

This thread topic is the specific issue that most often dominates any discussion of climate on this website.

Is climate change even theoretically possible?

Does thermodynamics prove that increasing the concentration of so called greenhouse gases in the atmosphere cannot possibly result in higher air temperatures at the surface?

THIS is a thread where that particular discussion is welcomed.

Indeed, it is the intended topic.

Foul! The "at the Earth's surface" part voids your discussion of Global Warming. You are no longer talking about Global Warming and are now discussing only "surface warming" which is actually "bottom of the atmosphere warming." Hence you are not discussing any increase in earth's average temperature.

You are admitting that there is no Global Warming, which means there is no "greenhouse effect" causing any Global Warming.

If the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere increases, so does the air pressure, and so does the temperature.

I should also add, there are reactions, such as burning gasoline (natural and unleaded) which do increase CO2 concentration, but also remove more weight in O2 than CO2 added. So this reaction would not increase air pressure (though the fumes are toxic). However burning coal, and breathing would increase air pressure.

Yup. I have found that in the winter time if I maintain 140 psi in my 50 gallon air compressor, it's like free heat. I filler' up in the fall and it stays warm the entire cold season. It's the same concept as compressed CO2 tanks. Hot shit!

Air compressors aren't used to heat homes.

A common use is in a refrigerator. The compressor heats up the refrigerant substance in gas form. It rises up the condenser coils, turns into a liquid, and the heat is released from vent fins. You can feel the heat from the compressed refrigerant gas, which has condensed to a liquid , on the back of your refrigerator. It passes through an expansion device, turns into a vapor, which has a cooling effect, passes through the evaporator coils, which absorb heat from inside the refrigerator, and the gas falls back down into the compressor, and the loop continues, from gas to liquid to gas to liquid, on and on.

Simple question gets a simple answer. Then an explanation.

"If I said 'methane absorbs energy and radiates back down to ba absorbed by the surface, would you agree or disagree with that statement?""

No, I would not agree.

I would say that "methane absorbs infrared radiation." (not generic "energy")

I would say that that it "radiates in all directions", including an important part going back up toward outer space.

And I would counter that very LITTLE of it is "absorbed by the surface".

Most of that infrared radiation doesn't get very far before it encounters another gas molecule in the atmosphere.

I take it you have no opinion about the specific assertions made in this thread.

Can helium leave the atmosphere? (of course it can)

You cannot heat a warmer object with a colder one. You are ignoring the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

There is no 'expansion device'. The refrigerant passes through a fixed orifice, dropping the pressure and allowing the refrigerant to become very cold via the ideal gas law.

It is not possible to absorb heat. The inside of the refrigerator heats the refrigerant, increasing it's pressure somewhat.

The compressor, being the heaviest item, is typically placed at the bottom of the refrigerator, but it can be located anywhere in the unit.

The point was increasing air pressure generates heat (and it's not ideal to use a 50 gallon air compressor on its own to try to heat your home).

There is ventilation, usually on the back of the fridge, to let out the heat from the condenser coils. The condenser coils themselves aren't ventilated. I thought that would be understood as all the refrigerant would leak out. But thanks for clearing that up.

The fixed orifice as you called it, turns the refrigerant from a liquid to a gas. That's why it's called an expansion device.

I suppose the one point you made that I will consider as not just trolling and stupid nit picking is the dynamics between the cold evaporator coils and the warm air. The cold coils make the warm air cold. If that is not absorbing heat, then please describe the dynamics? Is the cold air displacing the hot air?

Heat is the flow of thermal energy, always from hot to cold. So thermal energy flows from the warmer ambient air to the colder coils.

An air conditioner makes the home cooler by increasing heat.

The point was increasing air pressure generates heat (and it's not ideal to use a 50 gallon air compressor on its own to try to heat your home).

Air compressors are not measured by volume. Unit error.

It is perfectly feasible to heat your home with nothing more than a heat pump...and indeed some homes are built that way.

The condenser is usually just exposed on the back to ambient air. Sounds like yours has some sort of cover over it with fans circulating air past the coils. There really is not much point in such a design.

The condenser coils themselves aren't ventilated. I thought that would be understood as all the refrigerant would leak out. But thanks for clearing that up.

No, it's called an orifice. It does not expand anything. The evaporator does that. The orifice acts more like a check valve.

I suppose the one point you made that I will consider as not just trolling and stupid nit picking is the dynamics between the cold evaporator coils and the warm air. The cold coils make the warm air cold. If that is not absorbing heat, then please describe the dynamics? Is the cold air displacing the hot air?

Heat cannot be absorbed, stored, trapped, or contained in anything.

RQAA. Also see the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

A refrigeration system is nothing more than a conveyor of thermal energy.

Heat is the flow of thermal energy, always from hot to cold. So thermal energy flows from the warmer ambient air to the colder coils.

An air conditioner makes the home cooler by increasing heat.

A blanket keeps you warmer by decreasing heat.

You have it right.

Warm air inside the box heats the coils in the evaporator (and to the refrigerant in them). The refrigerant conveys that thermal energy to the condenser, where it heats the air around the refrigerator.

So plugging in a refrigerator increases heat.

Refrigerators also have insulation in the cabinet, reducing heat from the surrounding air back inside the box (why you should keep your refrigerator door shut!).

The result is colder air inside the cabinet, and a slightly warmer room.

In other words, a refrigerator seems to decrease entropy. This is not possible, of course. It only works if you plug it into a power source. Entropy throughout that system is still increasing, leaving the 2nd law of thermodynamics satisfied.

At least you now specifically identify the 1st law of thermodynamics as the basis for refusing to believe the objective reality that helium escapes the atmosphere.


In the "para" theoretical model of the Universe, Earth is the heart feeding the entire Universe.

There is no doubt, Earth is entirely shielded by yellow glass, but the model does not absolutely forbid gases to escape the atmosphere, because that would defeat the purpose of Earth. But the channels must be narrow.

Helium must be escaping. It's apparently used to charge the Sun. Charged Helium glows pink. That is what often causes sunsets to make the sky appear orange, when the brightness of the white sunlight is dimmed. The yellow glass, and the pink glow, makes tiger orange.




OOPS!

I just double checked.

The "exoplanets" recently referenced in astronomy publications as showing helium escape from their atmospheres are NOT moons of Jupiter or Neptune.

They are "Jupiter-like" or "Neptune-like" exoplanets outside of our solar system, all of them at least 73 light years away from here.
-----------------------------------

Okay, as Spongy John correctly points out, helium has spectral properties that can be seen and measured from great distance.

Astronomers had long been aware that helium escapes the atmospheres of planets the size of the Earth.

But it was a surprise that these massive exoplanets were losing helium.

And they are debating different theories about how even such large planets can lose helium.

Mostly they are invoking mechanisms through which some helium atoms get kicked extra hard and escape the atmosphere despite the strong gravitational field.

"Charged helium glows pink."

The glow can be seen more than 73 light years away, exiting the atmosphere.

Now here's where the Church of Global Warming gets it wrong:

First, there is no power source required for the presence of carbon dioxide (or any other Holy Magick Gas). Therefore, it is possible to use the Earth itself as the system. As in any given system, you cannot consider any heat source or sink from outside that system.

Therefore, the mere presence of carbon dioxide (or any other Holy Magick Gas) is incapable of warming the Earth. Earth cannot heat itself. THAT would violate both the 1st and the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

Now let's consider a different system, which includes the Sun and the surrounding space.
The Sun heats the Earth, and thermal energy from Earth is radiated into space. With the same output from the Sun, the same radiance will occur into space.

The mere presence of carbon dioxide (or any other Holy Magick Gas) cannot change that. THAT would violate the Stefan-Boltzmann law by REDUCING radiance at higher temperature.

It would also violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics by decreasing entropy in the system. It is literally trying to heat a warmer surface using a colder gas in the atmosphere.

It would also violate the 1st law of thermodynamics by adding additional energy (the output of the Sun PLUS additional energy from somewhere unnamed) to the system simply by the mere presence of carbon dioxide (or any other Holy Magick Gas).

You cannot create energy out of nothing.
You cannot trap heat.
You cannot trap light.
You cannot heat something warmer with something colder.

No gas or vapor is capable of warming the Earth.

Science is just a word game.

To win the game, you don't have to be a master of science.

Just a master of words.

To be a master of words, you must control their definition.

No dictionaries allowed.

No scientific textbooks or papers allowed.

The word means whatever the master of words wants it to mean for that specific context... You MUST define the context as part of the unambiguous definition.

"There is no such thing as (whatever accepted term was used)"

And who are YOU to dispute the authority of the WORD MASTER?

Just because all the published references (dictionaries, textbooks, etc.) and all the so called scientists say otherwise?

Just because everyone else seems to believe that their IS such a thing as (whatever accepted term was used)?

Science is just a word game.

And the WORD MASTER has NEVER LOST A DEBATE.

At least not in this cozy little rabbit hole.

There are HUNDREDS of threads available to posters.

Posters can start their own threads if there is a topic they want to discuss.

This particular thread was created in the hope of giving trolls a place to discuss the specific thermodynamics in atmospheric physics topic they kept bringing up on biogeochemistry threads.

All I'm asking for at this point is for 7 threads to be left alone by those who have no interest whatsoever in the actual thread topic.

The topic they supposedly care most about is specifically identified as the topic of THIS THREAD.

Still waiting for someone, anyone to show that they have the slightest clue how thermodynamics actually applies to atmospheric physics.

If the trolls are not willing to discuss it HERE, could they at least PLEASE STOP constantly bringing it up on threads whose topics do NOT include how thermodynamics applies to atmospheric physics?

Do you have any evidence to support the claim that "The atmosphere is not physics."?

Is it true that if you post the same sentence a thousand times it magically becomes the irrefutable truth?

"There is no such thing as biogeochemistry."

You're getting close to that magic threshold - the 1000-post repetition fallacy miracle transformation tipping point.

And it will magically become the irrefutable truth.

Biogeochemistry will simply cease to exist.

But you're still going to have to prove that the atmosphere is not physics.

Otherwise, you will have to repeat post it a thousand times before anyone will know that it is true.

"RQAA", right?

Be careful how you word it.

We wouldn't want the 1000-post-repetition-fallacy miracle magic to make the atmosphere simply cease to exist..
