Morphology
thermodynamical = thermodynamic (transparent) = thermodynamic + al
Formed by adding the productive adjectival suffix '-al' to the clear base 'thermodynamic', so the meaning is directly derived.
Etymology
Thermodynamical comes from Greek parts thermo- meaning 'heat' and dynam- meaning 'power', just like in the words thermal and dynamic. So it refers to how 'heat' and 'power' move and change, which is why we use it for ideas about energy and heat.
