two temperature-limits the only possible ir-regular clockwise cycle is one lying wholly between thoselimits. THE CYCLE 61 Thus, in Fig. 6 it is quite possible to imagine the irregu-lar clockwise cycle EFGHIKLM operative between thelimits Tx and T2; for the heat can readily fall into thecarrier from… … Fig. 7 direction between the limits T\ and T\ it becomes obviousthat the thing is impossible. The carrier cannot passalong hEFGH absorbing heat from hH; it cannot passalong mIKLM rejecting heat into mM. The Second Lawforbids. The irregular counter-clockwise cycle MLKIHGFE ofFig. 7 is quite…
