چکیده

The heat fluctuation probability distribution function in Brownian transducers operating between two heat reservoirs is studied. We find, both analytically and numerically, that the recently proposed fluctuation theorem for heat exchange [C. Jarzynski and D. K. Wojcik, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 230602 (2004)] has to be applied carefully when the coupling mechanism between both baths is considered. We also conjecture how to extend such a relation when an external work is present.

Investigation of Brownian Motion of CuO-Water Nanofluid in a Porous Cavity with Internal Heat Generation by Using of LTNE Model

In this paper, the effect of the Brownian term in natural convection of CuO-Water nanofluid inside a partially filled porous cavity, with internal heat generation has been studied. It is assumed that the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluid consists of a static part and a Brownian part of which is a function of temperature and the volume fraction of nanofluid. Because of internal hea...

Preparation of MCM-41 nanofluid and an investigation of Brownian movement of the nanoparticles on the nanofluid conductivity

In this investigation the silicate nano structure of MCM-41 has been used for the production of nanofluid. The particles have negligible heat conductivity and therefore by their dispersion in a base fluid like water, it is possible to study the increase of heat conductivity due to the Brownian motion effects. In this work a suitable apparatus for the measurement of heat conductivity has been bu...

Stationary State Fluctuation Theorems for Driven Langevin Systems

Recent results on the stationary state Fluctuation Theorems for work and heat fluctuations of Langevin systems are presented. The relevance of finite time corrections in understanding experimental and simulation results is explained in the context of an exactly solvable model, namely a Brownian particle in a harmonic potential, which is dragged through the surrounding fluid. In this model, work...

Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids over a Flat Plate with Conjugate Heat Transfer

The falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. This phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. In this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...
