Isolated system
Description
The boundaries of isolated systems are impermeable for all forms of energy and matter. Changes of isolated systems have exclusively internal origins, e.g., internal entropy production, diS/dt, internal formation of chemical species i which is produced in a reaction r, dini/dt = drni/dt. In isolated systems some internal terms are restricted to zero by various conservation laws which rule out the production or destruction of the respective quantity.

Internal change of internal-energy
- IUPAC defines the internal energy change, ΞU = q+w [1]. This is restricted to closed systems. To clarify that internal (subscript i) and external (subscript e) energy changes, diU and deU, respectively, refer to U as "internal energy", it may be helpful to write "internal-energy" for U [2].
- The First Law of Thermodynamics states that in all systems the internal change of internal-energy is always zero, diU/dt = 0 [2].
