noun

熵，热力学熵。

Strictly thermodynamic entropy. A measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.

Examples :

"The teacher explained that in a closed system, entropies always increase over time, meaning less energy is available to do useful work. "

老师解释说，在一个封闭系统中，熵总是随着时间推移而增加，这意味着可用于做功的能量会越来越少。(Lǎoshī jiěshì shuō, zài yīgè fēngbì xìtǒng zhōng, shāng zǒngshì suízhe shíjiān tuīyí ér zēngjiā, zhè yìwèi zhe kěyòng yú zuògōng de néngliàng huì yuè lái yuè shǎo.)

熵值，混乱度

A measure of the disorder present in a system.

Examples :

"After the children played with all their toys, the high entropies of the living room made it clear that a major cleanup was needed. "

孩子们玩了所有的玩具之后，客厅里极高的熵值，也就是极高的混乱度，清楚地表明需要彻底清理一下了。

noun

熵，混乱度

The capacity factor for thermal energy that is hidden with respect to temperature http//arxiv.org/pdf/physics/0004055.

Examples :

"When comparing the efficiency of different engines, engineers must consider the entropies, representing the wasted thermal energy unavailable for doing useful work. "

在比较不同引擎的效率时，工程师必须考虑它们的熵，这代表了无法用于做功而被浪费的热能。

noun

熵，无序度。

The dispersal of energy; how much energy is spread out in a process, or how widely spread out it becomes, at a specific temperature. https//web.archive.org/web/20060702234316/http://www.entropysite.com/students_approach.html

Examples :

"Comparing the entropies of ice versus liquid water, liquid water has higher entropies because its molecules are more disordered and its energy is more dispersed. "

比较冰和液态水的熵，液态水具有更高的熵，因为它的分子更加无序，能量也更加分散。

熵值，信息混乱度

A measure of the amount of information and noise present in a signal.

Examples :

"The different entropies of the student's exam results showed a surprising amount of variation in their understanding of the subject matter. "

学生考试成绩的熵值差异表明他们对该学科的理解程度参差不齐，令人惊讶。

noun

熵，混乱度。

The tendency of a system that is left to itself to descend into chaos.

Examples :

"After the kids spent all day playing in the living room, the entropies of scattered toys and overturned cushions were clear indicators of the day's chaos. "

孩子们在客厅里玩了一整天之后，散落的玩具和翻倒的垫子所呈现出的混乱状态，清楚地表明了今天的喧闹。
