The Thermodynamics of the Perfect Vapor
In this paper, heat and Carnot's working substance are defined respectively by the equations $E=3pV$ and $E=3/2pV$, relating the energy $E$, the pressure $p$ and the volume $V$ of these two corpuscular systems. The thermodynamic-kinetic theoretical analysis of their equilibrium reveals that the constraints imposed by the second law on the working ...

Thermodynamical instabilities of perfect fluid spheres in General Relativity [PDF]
For a static, perfect fluid sphere with a general equation of state, we obtain the relativistic equation of hydrostatic equilibrium, namely the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equation, as the thermodynamical equilibrium in the microcanonical, as well as the canonical, ensemble.

The Regency novel and the British constitution: Austen, Brunton, Shelley, and the culture of Romantic decline [PDF]
During the Regency period (1811-1820), Britons were faced at home with daunting political problems: a scandal-plagued royal family; ongoing war with France; a weak postwar economy; a complicated and relatively new union of Scotland with England and Wales;

Evaluation thermodynamic perfection of the cogeneration cascade machines cycles
One of the promising trends in the refrigerating engineering is building machines for industrial processes with the simultaneous use of two thermal effects (heat and cold). The fundamental possibility to build machines, operating on a complex reverse thermodynamic cycle with the production of low-grade cold and high-grade heat is considered.
