We study the thermodynamic properties of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe in the brane world scenario, concentrating on the Randall-Sundrum II model. From the first law of thermodynamics for the FRW universe, we find that the work density W can be identified with the thermodynamic pressure P. We construct the equation of state P=P(V,T) for the FRW universe in the brane world scenario, which does not show P-V phase transition. We further study the Joule-Thomson expansion of the FRW universe, and derive the Joule-Thomson coefficient, which has an inversion point that is affected by the brane tension. These results could provide new ways to test the brane world scenario and extra dimension.
