Analysis of flow loss characteristics of slanted axial-flow pump device based on entropy production theory [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
Slanted axial-flow pump devices are widely applied in urban water supply, irrigation and drainage engineering fields. The second law of thermodynamics is applied to investigate the flow loss characteristics of the 30° slanted axial-flow pump model ...

Unified framework for the entropy production and the stochastic interaction based on information geometry

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
We show a relation between the entropy production in stochastic thermodynamics and the stochastic interaction in the integrated information theory. To clarify this relation, we introduce an information-geometric interpretation of the entropy production ...

Nonequilibrium quantum-impurities: from entropy production to information theory [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2007
Nonequilibrium steady-state currents, unlike their equilibrium counterparts, continuously dissipate energy into their physical surroundings leading to entropy production and time-reversal symmetry breaking.

Towards Pragmatist Thermodynamics: An Essay on the Natural Philosophy of Entropy and Sustainability [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
Classical thermodynamics (CT) has become integrated into everyday life, especially through its applications in engineering. In contrast, out-of-equilibrium thermodynamics (OET) is often viewed as a fundamental science that seems distant from daily ...

Microscopic theory for the time irreversibility and the entropy production [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2017
In stochastic thermodynamics, the entropy production of a thermodynamic system is defined by the irreversibility measured by the logarithm of the ratio of the path probabilities in the forward and reverse processes.

Entropy Production in the Theory of Heat Conduction in Solids [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
The evolution of the entropy production in solids due to heat transfer is usually associated with the Prigogine’s minimum entropy production principle.

Thermodynamic Theory of Macrosystems: Entropy Production as a Metric

open access: yesEntropy
The article considers the description of a macrosystem in terms that do not depend on the nature of the macrosystem. The results obtained can be used to describe macrosystem models of thermodynamic processes, and to create interdisciplinary models that ...

Characteristics of Cavitation Flow for a Regulating Valve Based on Entropy Production Theory

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
A regulating valve is a key control element in the coal liquefaction industry, whose flow field distribution is related to the entropy production. In order to make a quantitative evaluation of the energy loss in the cavitation flow and calculate the ...
