In science:
- Thermodynamic free energy, the energy in a physical system that can be converted to do work, in particular:
- Helmholtz free energy, the energy that can be converted into work at a constant temperature and volume
- Work content, a related concept used in chemistry
- Gibbs free energy, the energy that can be converted into work at a constant temperature and pressure
- Helmholtz free energy, the energy that can be converted into work at a constant temperature and volume
In pseudoscience:
- Free energy suppression, a conspiracy theory that advanced energy technologies are being suppressed by special interest groups
- Perpetual motion, impossible machines that supposedly produce more energy then they consume
See also
- Free-energy relationship a relation between the reaction rate or equilibrium constants of two series of chemical reactions
- Free energy perturbation, a method based on statistical mechanics that is used in computational chemistry for computing free energy differences
