Local entropy generation analysis [PDF]
, 1991 Second law analysis techniques have been widely used to evaluate the sources of irreversibility in components and systems of components but the evaluation of local sources of irreversibility in thermal processes has received little attention. While analytical procedures for evaluating local entropy generation have been developed, applications have been

Entropy generation analysis of electrodialysis [PDF]
Desalination, 2017 Abstract Electrodialysis (ED) is a desalination technology with many applications. In order to better understand how the energetic performance of this technology can be improved, the various losses in the system should be quantified and characterized. This can be done by looking at the entropy generation in ED systems.

Entropy Generation Analysis of the Flow Boiling in Microgravity Field. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2022 Entropy generation analysis of the flow boiling in microgravity field is conducted in this paper. A new entropy generation model based on the flow pattern and the phase change process is developed in this study. The velocity ranges from 1 m/s to 4 m/s, and the heat flux ranges from 10,000 W/m2 to 50,000 W/m2, so as to investigate their influence on ...
