Findings

Thermodynamic volume exceeds geometric volume.

No second order phase transition observed.

Logarithmic quantum correction to entropy derived.

Abstract

If the negative cosmological constant is treated as a dynamical pressure and if the volume be its thermodynamically conjugate variable then the gravitational mass can be expressed as the total gravitational enthalpy rather than the energy. Under these circumstances, a new phenomena emerges in the context of extended phase space thermodynamics. We \emph{examine} here these features for recently discovered Van-der-Waal (VDW) black hole (BH) \cite{mann15} which is analogous to the VDW fluid. We show that the thermodynamic volume is \emph{greater} than the naive geometric volume. We also show that the \emph{Smarr-Gibbs-Duhem} relation is satisfied for this BH. Furthermore, by computing the thermal specific heat we find the local thermodynamic stability criterion for this BH. It has been observed that the BH does \emph{not} possess any kind of second order phase transition. This is an interesting feature of VDW BH by its own right. Moreover, we also derive \emph{Cosmic-Censorship-Inequality} for this class of BH. In addition finally, we compute the \emph{logarithmic correction} to the entropy of this BH due to the quantum fluctuations around the thermal equilibrium.
