Thermodynamic Analysis of Entropy Generation Minimization in Thermally Dissipating Flow Over a Thin Needle Moving in a Parallel Free Stream of Two Newtonian Fluids [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2019 This article is devoted to study sustainability of entropy generation in an incompressible thermal flow of Newtonian fluids over a thin needle that is moving in a parallel stream. Two types of Newtonian fluids (water and air) are considered in this work.

International Journal of Energy Research, 2002 This paper outlines the fundamentals of the methods of exergy analysis and entropy generation minimization (or thermodynamic optimization—the minimization of exergy destruction). The paper begins with a review of the concept of irreversibility, entropy generation, or exergy destruction.

Entropy Generation Minimization Theoretical Analysis for External Flow Around Horizontal Cylinder at low Reynold Number [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2018 The minimization of entropy generation is a helpful method to design optimum thermal system, and find an expression for entropy generation at several ranges of Reynolds number for heat transfer and friction flow irreversibility is a good way to achieve ...

Entropy Generation Minimization of a Thermoelectric Cooler [PDF]
The Open Thermodynamics Journal, 2008 In the present work, we develop a theoretical analysis to minimize the entropy generation of a thermo-electric cooler (TEC), which can be used to cool a processor. We have applied an analysis of first and second law of the Thermo- dynamics to a TEC. We consider the entropy generation equation as the objective function and the first law as a restric ...

Entropy generation rate minimization for sulfur trioxide decomposition membrane reactor
Energy Reports, 2022 Sulfuric acid decomposition is the critical reaction in sulfur-iodide thermochemical cycle to produce oxygen. Sulfuric acid can decompose spontaneously into sulfur trioxide (SO3) and water, and SO3 continues to decompose into oxygen and sulfur dioxide ...

Convergence of generalized entropy minimizers in sequences of convex problems [PDF]
2016 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), 2016 Integral functionals based on convex normal integrands are minimized over convex constraint sets. Generalized minimizers exist under a boundedness condition. Sequences of the minimization problems are studied when the constraint sets are nested. The corresponding sequences of generalized minimizers are related to the minimization over limit convex sets.
