Constant mixing temperature test of a fin-and-tube latent heat thermal energy storage

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Thermal energy accumulation is one of the ways how to optimize heat production processes and how to balance the supply and demand of heat in distribution systems. This article presents a design of a fin-and-tube latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES),

Thermodynamics and Rate Thermodynamics

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics
Approach of mesoscopic state variables to time independent equilibrium sates (zero law of thermodynamics) gives birth to the classical equilibrium thermodynamics. Approach of fluxes and forces to fixed points (equilibrium fluxes and forces) that drive reduced mesoscopic dynamics gives birth to the rate thermodynamics that is applicable to driven ...

Leidenfrost droplet trampolining

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The classic Leidenfrost phenomenon is familiar, yet its physics is rather complex. Graeber et al. observe the unexpected development of repeated hopping of a droplet trampolining on its own vapor cushion on a hot plate and show under which conditions ...

Exergoeconomic analysis of a pumped heat electricity storage system based on a Joule/Brayton cycle

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2021
Storing electrical energy in the form of thermal energy, pumped heat electricity storage (PHES) systems are a location‐independent alternative to established storage technologies.

The dynamics of thermodynamics

open access: yesPhysica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 1998
Thermodynamic relations are derived from first principles of mechanics for non-equilibrium processes. Since the key role herein is played by the law of increase of entropy, the latter is analyzed at first. It is shown that its derivation for isolated systems does not allow one to say too much about thermodynamic properties in non-equilibrium conditions.

Influence of Salts on the Adsorption of Lysozyme on a Mixed-Mode Resin

open access: yesAdsorption Science & Technology, 2021
Mixed-mode chromatography (MMC), which combines features of ion exchange chromatography (IEC) and hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC), is an interesting method for protein separation and purification.

On phantom thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2008
The thermodynamic properties of dark energy fluids described by an equation of state parameter $ω=p/ρ$ are rediscussed in the context of FRW type geometries. Contrarily to previous claims, it is argued here that the phantom regime $ω0$ and $S>0$ in the course of the Universe expansion.

Entropy scaling for diffusion coefficients in fluid mixtures

open access: yesNature Communications
Entropy scaling is a powerful technique that has been used for predicting transport properties of pure components over a wide range of states. However, modeling mixture diffusion coefficients by entropy scaling is an unresolved task. We tackle this issue

Novel post-processing methods for infrared measurements on porous surfaces

open access: yesScientific Reports
Infrared (IR) thermography is a key diagnostic tool for non-invasive measurements of surface temperatures. However, for porous materials, particularly those employed in self-pumping transpiration cooling systems, conventional IR techniques suffer from ...
