Energy conversion theorems for some linear steady-states
L. A. Arias-Hernandez, G. Valencia-Ortega, F. Angulo-Brown +1
One of the main issues that real energy converters present, when they produce effective work, is the inevitable entropy production. Within the context of Non-equilibrium Thermodyna…
Connection between maximum-work and maximum-power thermal cycles
Julian Gonzalez-Ayala, L. A. Arias-Hernandez, F. Angulo-Brown
We propose a new connection between maximum-power Curzon-Ahlborn thermal cycles and maximum-work reversible cycles. This linkage is built through a mapping between the exponents of…
The universality of the Carnot theorem
Julian Gonzalez-Ayala, F. Angulo-Brown
It is common in many thermodynamic textbooks to illustrate the Carnot theorem through the usage of diverse state equations for gases, paramagnets, and other simple thermodynamic sy…
A first--order irreversible thermodynamic approach to a simple energy converter
L. A. Arias-Hernández, R. T. Paez-Hernández, F. Angulo-Brown
Several authors have shown that dissipative thermal cycle models based on Finite-Time Thermodynamics exhibit loop-shaped curves of power output versus efficiency, such as it occurs…
