Abstract
In Chapter 8 the First Principal Lemma and its Corollary refer only to cycles in a Carnot web. Now, after three preliminary lemmas, we shall introduce a class of cyclic processes called C-processes; this class includes Carnot processes as a special case. We shall then extend the central results of Chapter 8 to C-processes in ํth; our aim is to prove two major theorems: the Emission-Absorption Theorem and the Efficiency Theorem.
