Free energy is a generalization of energy when the system exchanges heat with the environment. Energy, in its turn, can be extracted from lagrangian under the symmetry of time $(\frac{\partial L}{\partial t}=0)$. However, I can't find any sources that links the free energy directly from lagrangian. Is there any way to do that? If it is, what symmetry is it based on?
What is the link between free energy and lagrangian?
