Analysis of low‐temperature pumped thermal energy storage systems based on a transcritical CO2 charging process

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2023
Pumped thermal energy storage (PTES) is a technology for intermediate storage of electrical energy in the form of thermal energy. In this work, PTES systems based on a transcritical CO2 charging process are investigated.

Measuring thermodynamic length [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 99 100602 (2007), 2007
Thermodynamic length is a metric distance between equilibrium thermodynamic states. Among other interesting properties, this metric asymptotically bounds the dissipation induced by a finite time transformation of a thermodynamic system. It is also connected to the Jensen-Shannon divergence, Fisher information and Rao's entropy differential metric ...

The Thermodynamic Universe

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
Using Planck scale oscillators in the background dark energy in a model that parallels the theory of phonons, we deduce the Planck mass, the elementary particle mass scale, the mass of the Universe and a recently discovered residual energy in the cosmic background. We also deduce the Beckenstein temperature formula for black holes. Finally we show that

Thermodynamics and Rate Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
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 ...

A unified view of polymer, dumbbell, and oligonucleotide DNA nearest-neighbor thermodynamics.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998
A unified view of polymer, dumbbell, and oligonucleotide nearest-neighbor (NN) thermodynamics is presented. DNA NN DeltaG degrees 37 parameters from seven laboratories are presented in the same format so that careful comparisons can be made.

Black hole chemistry: thermodynamics with Lambda [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We review recent developments on the thermodynamics of black holes in extended phase space, where the cosmological constant is interpreted as thermodynamic pressure and treated as a thermodynamic variable in its own right.

Thermodynamics of Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole: thermal stability of Nariai black hole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study thermodynamics of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole in five dimensions by introducing two temperatures based on the standard and Bousso-Hawking normalizations. We use the first-law of thermodynamics to derive thermodynamic quantities.

Quasi-Homogeneous Thermodynamics and Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesJ.Math.Phys. 44 (2003) 1089-1128, 2002
We propose a generalized thermodynamics in which quasi-homogeneity of the thermodynamic potentials plays a fundamental role. This thermodynamic formalism arises from a generalization of the approach presented in paper [1], and it is based on the requirement that quasi-homogeneity is a non-trivial symmetry for the Pfaffian form $\delta Q_{rev}$.

Quantum Thermodynamics

open access: yes, 2013
Quantum thermodynamics addresses the emergence of thermodynamical laws from quantum mechanics. The link is based on the intimate connection of quantum thermodynamics with the theory of open quantum systems.

The postulates of gravitational thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The general principles and logical structure of a thermodynamic formalism that incorporates strongly self-gravitating systems are presented. This framework generalizes and simplifies the formulation of thermodynamics developed by Callen.
