  • Abstract
    The explanation of the thermodynamic paradox given by Gardiol is shown to be fallacious for physically possible situations. Gardiol´s argument leads to the conclusion that loss-free reactances cannot exist and the fallacy may be removed by regarding the loss-free case as the limit in which losses become vanishingly small.
