Entropy Generation Minimization of a Thermoelectric Cooler
In the present work, we develop a theoretical analysis to minimize the entropy generation of a thermo-electric cooler (TEC), which can be used to cool a processor. We have applied an analysis of first and second law of the Thermodynamics to a TEC. We consider the entropy generation equation as the objective function and the first law as a restriction, in accordance with the variational calculus...
متن کاملPattern discovery via entropy minimization
We propose a framework for learning hiddenvariable models by optimizing entropies, in which entropy minimization, posterior maximization, and free energy minimization are all equivalent. Solutions for the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator yield powerful learning algorithms that combine all the charms of expectation-maximization and deterministic annealing. Contained as special cases are the ...
متن کاملContinuous synthesis of methanol: heterogeneous hydrogenation of ethylene carbonate over Cu/HMS catalysts in a fixed bed reactor system.
Continuous fixed-bed catalytic hydrogenation of ethylene carbonate (EC) to methanol and ethylene glycol (EG), an emerging synthetic process of methanol via indirect conversion of CO2, was successfully performed over Cu/HMS catalysts prepared by the ammonia evaporation (AE) method. The catalysts possessed superb performance with a conversion of 100% and a selectivity to methanol of 74%.
متن کاملDynamic Simulation of the Lurgi-type Reactor for Methanol Synthesis
The purpose of this work is to develop a reasonably detailed dynamic model of a Lurgitype industrial methanol synthesis reactor so as to determine important simplifications, to identify application/operating model limits, and to preliminary check the feasibility for the Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) methodology. To do so, a Partially Differential Equation (PDE) system is formulated ...
متن کاملA highly selective and stable ZnO-ZrO2 solid solution catalyst for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol
Although methanol synthesis via CO hydrogenation has been industrialized, CO2 hydrogenation to methanol still confronts great obstacles of low methanol selectivity and poor stability, particularly for supported metal catalysts under industrial conditions. We report a binary metal oxide, ZnO-ZrO2 solid solution catalyst, which can achieve methanol selectivity of up to 86 to 91% with CO2 single-p...
