Analysis of Homogeneous/Heterogeneous Reactions in an Electrohydrodynamic Environment Utilizing the Second Law [PDF]

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
In this study, we investigate what happens to entropy in the presence of electrokinetic phenomena. It is speculated that the microchannel has an asymmetrical and slanted configuration.

The Second Law and Entropy Misconceptions Demystified [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
The challenges and claims of hypothetical violations of the Second Law of thermodynamics have been a topic of many scientific, philosophical and social publications, even in the most prestigious scientific journals.

Second Law and Its Amendment: The Axiom of No-Reversible Directions Revisited [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
A toy model is used to describe the following steps to achieve the no-reversible-direction axiom in a tutorial manner: (i) choose a state space results in the balance equations on state space which are linear in the process directions, (ii) avoid a ...

Landauer Principle and the Second Law in a Relativistic Communication Scenario [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
The problem of formulating thermodynamics in a relativistic scenario remains unresolved, although many proposals exist in the literature. The challenge arises due to the intrinsic dynamic structure of spacetime as established by the general theory of ...

Second Law and Non-Equilibrium Entropy of Schottky Systems—Doubts and Verification– [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Meixner’s historical remark in 1969 “... it can be shown that the concept of entropy in the absence of equilibrium is in fact not only questionable but that it cannot even be defined....” is investigated from today’s insight ...

Second Law Analysis for the Experimental Performances of a Cold Heat Exchanger of a Stirling Refrigeration Machine [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
The second law of thermodynamics is applied to evaluate the influence of entropy generation on the performances of a cold heat exchanger of an experimental Stirling refrigeration machine by means of three factors: the entropy generation rate N S

Thermal performance in heat exchangers by the irreversibility, effectiveness, and efficiency concepts using nanofluids [PDF]

open access: yesЖурнал інженерних наук, 2020
The objective of the work is to obtain the outlet temperatures of the fluids in a shell and tube heat exchanger. The second law of thermodynamics is applied through the concepts of efficiency, effectiveness, and irreversibility to analyze the results ...

Nonequilibrium Entropy Conservation and the Transport Equations of Mass, Momentum, and Energy

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics or molecular theory has put the transport equations of mass, momentum and energy on a firm or rigorous theoretical foundation that has played a critical role in their use and applications. Here, it is shown that those

Second Law Violation By Magneto-Caloric Effect Adiabatic Phase Transition of Type I Superconductive Particles

open access: yesEntropy, 2004
: The nature of the thermodynamic behavior of Type I superconductor particles, having a cross section less than the Ginzburg-Landau temperature dependent coherence length is discussed for magnetic field induced adiabatic phase transitions from the ...

Empirical Evidence for a Law of Information Growth

open access: yesEntropy, 2001
: Based on a robust, phenomenological model for the growth of a system parameter, a relation is derived to test the evolution of such a parameter through several distinct stages.
