Thermodynamic equipartition for increased second law efficiency
In this work, a clear distinction is drawn between irreversibility associated with a finite mean driving force in a transport process and irreversibility associated with variance in the spatial and/or temporal distribution of this driving force. The portion of irreversibility associated with driving force variance is quantified via a newly defined dimensionless quantity, the equipartition facto...
متن کاملKinetic Derivation of Gauss's Law and Its Thermodynamic Significance*
The entropy S is a dimensionless quant i ty since the tempera ture T has dimensions of energy so that it can be measured in energy units. The r a n d o m variable n is the number of particles, and n s denotes its average or mos t probable value. E is the internal energy, p the chemical potential and V the volume. According to (1), the entropy is the thermodynamic potential tha t determines the ...
متن کاملargumentation of order and the second law of thermodynamic
the second law of thermodynamic (entropy principle) is of special theo-philosophical importance. it seems that this law, which is renowned as “the death of software design” and despite the order in the world, is like an incompatible universal. this article examines the concept of entropy in the three temperature, statistic, and information applications and addresses the contradiction of the sec...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effect of piston geometrical parameters on RCCI engine performance based on second law of thermodynamic
The reactivity controlled compression ignition engines have high thermal efficiency and low exhaust emission of nitrogen oxides and soot because of low temperature combustion. In this type of engines, low reactivity fuel is injected to air through intake port and high reactivity fuel is injected into the combustion chamber during compression stroke. The aim of current study is to investigate th...
متن کاملThermodynamic origins of shear band formation and the universal scaling law of metallic glass strength.
We report a universal scaling law, tau_{y} = 3R(T_{g}-RT)/V, that uncovers an inherent relationship of the yield strength tau_{y} with the glass transition temperature T_{g} and molar volume V of metallic glasses. This equation is derived from fundamental thermodynamics and validated by various metallic glasses with well-defined yielding. The linearity between tau_{y} and T_{g} demonstrates the...
