Limits to Energy Conversion [PDF]
A consequence of the Second Law of thermodynamics is that no thermodynamic system with a single heat source at constant temperature can convert heat into mechanical work in a recurrent manner. First we note that this is equivalent to cyclo-passivity at the mechanical port of the thermodynamic system, while the temperature at the thermal port of the ...

Sustainability and Energy Conversions [PDF]
AbstractA sustainable global energy system requires a transition away from energy sources with high greenhouse emissions. Vast energy resources are available to meet our needs, and technology pathways for making this transition exist. Lowering the cost and increasing the reliability and quality of energy from sustainable energy sources will facilitate ...
