Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of an interface.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of transport through moving interfaces with application to bubble growth and collapse.

We develop the general equation for the nonequilibrium reversible-irreversible coupling framework of thermodynamics to handle moving interfaces in the context of a gas that can be dissolved in a surrounding liquid. The key innovation is a "moving interface normal transfer" term required for consistency between the thermodynamic evolution equation and the chain rule of functional calculus. The f...

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Hydrate Growth on a Gas-Liquid Interface

Nonequilibrium properties of a two-dimensionally isotropic interface in a two-phase mixture as described by the square gradient model.

In earlier work a systematic extension of the van der Waals square gradient model to nonequilibrium one-component systems was given. In this work the focus was on heat and mass transfer through the liquid-vapor interface as caused by a temperature difference or an over- or underpressure. We will give an extension of this approach to multicomponent nonequilibrium systems in the systematic contex...

Fluctuations of permeable interfaces in water-in-water emulsions.

The fluctuations of highly permeable interfaces, encountered in phase-separated biopolymer solutions, liposomes, polymersomes, or colloidosomes, are investigated. An expression for the power spectrum of the height correlation function is derived for a multicomponent system, incorporating the effects of mass transfer across the interface, using nonequilibrium thermodynamics. We also derive an ex...
