Comments on Correlation Entropy Theory by Baranyai and Evans
نویسنده
چکیده
The correlation entropy theory by Baranyai and Evans produces non-negligible entropy contributions arising from the four-body and even higher order terms of correlations. If we express this as S(x), the estimated value of S(x) is 0.6 (±0.1) NkB near the melting point when the structure factor of a liquid metal is of hard-sphere form (I. Yokoyama and S. Tsuchiya: Mater. Trans. 43 (2002) 67–72.). The purpose of the present paper is to propose a way for avoiding the large positive value of S(x) and to show the recalculated results of the total entropy, diffusion coefficient, viscosity coefficient and surface tension of the liquid metals studied in the previous paper using the proposed pair and triplet correlation entropies definitions.

Comparison of entropy generation minimization principle and entransy theory in optimal design of thermal systems
In this study, the relationship among the concepts of entropy generation rate, entransy theory, and generalized thermal resistance to the optimal design of thermal systems is discussed. The equations of entropy and entransy rates are compared and their implications for optimization of conductive heat transfer are analyzed. The theoretical analyses show that based on entropy generation minimizat...

متن کاملCalculation of the entropy of binary hard sphere mixtures from pair correlation functions
The evaluation of the entropy of a liquid has wide applications in protein folding, I micelle formation, 2 membrane studies/ the hydrophobic effect,3 ion solvation,4 and other studies of solutions,5-9 but remains a difficult problem, both for computational and analytic statistical mechanics. In this paper we evaluate the nonideal contribution to the entropy of mixing for a simple binary liquid,...
متن کاملComments on the Entropy of nonequilibrium Steady States
We discuss the entropy of nonequilibrium steady states. We analyze the so-called spontaneous production of entropy in certain reversible deterministic nonequilibrium system, and its link with the collapse of such systems towards an attractor that is of lower dimension than the dimension of phase space. This means that in the steady state limit, the Gibbs entropy diverges to negative infinity. W...
