On the strict positivity of entropy production

چکیده
We refine an abstract result of the authors [JP3] concerning the strict positivity of entropy production of L1–asymptotically Abelian C∗-dynamical systems and apply the new result to a model describing finitely many free Fermi gas reservoirs coupled by local interactions. In particular, assuming that the reservoirs are initially not at equal temperatures or chemical potentials, we show that there is a dense set of local interactions such that the entropy production of the system is strictly positive for sufficiently small non-zero coupling.

Fluctuation relations and positivity of the entropy production in irreversible dynamical systems
We give a generalization of fluctuation identities and inequalities for the entropy production when the microscopic dynamics preserves the phase space volume but is not assumed to be dynamically reversible. We find that general first properties such as the strict positivity of the entropy production or the validity of an H−theorem are unaffected by the irreversibility of the dynamics. Fluctuati...
متن کاملOptimization of Finned-Tube Heat Exchanger with Minimizing the Entropy Production rate
A compact fin-tube heat exchanger is used to transfer current fluid heat inside the tubes into the air outside. In this study, entropy production and optimized Reynolds number for finned-tube heat exchangers based on the minimum entropy production have been investigated. As a result, the total entropy of compact heat exchangers, which is the summation of the production rate of fluid entropy ins...
متن کامل(Measuring System Entropy Generation in a Complex Economic Network (The Case of Iran
An economic system is comprised of different primary flows that can be captured in macroeconomic models with complex network relations. Theoretically and empirically in this system, weak substitution or complementarity of environmental materials, like energy and other production factors such as capital, is undeniable. This is an effective critique on neoclassical economics. In this paper, we vi...

متن کاملNumerical and Analytical Approach for Film Condensation on Different Forms of Surfaces
This paper tries to achieve a solution for problems that concern condensation around a flat plate, circular and elliptical tube in by numerical and analytical methods. Also, it calculates entropy production rates. At first, a problem was solved with mesh dynamic and rational assumptions; next it was compared with the numerical solution that the result had acceptable errors. An additional suppor...
