Definition and relevance of nonequilibrium intensive thermodynamic parameters.
We show that intensive thermodynamic parameters associated to additive conserved quantities can be naturally defined from a statistical approach in far-from-equilibrium steady-state systems, under few assumptions, and without any detailed balance requirement. It may apply, e.g., to dissipative systems such as granular gases where volume or mass is still conserved or to systems with periodic bou...
متن کاملIntensive thermodynamic parameters in nonequilibrium systems.
Considering a broad class of steady-state nonequilibrium systems for which some additive quantities are conserved by the dynamics, we introduce from a statistical approach intensive thermodynamic parameters (ITPs) conjugated to the conserved quantities. This definition does not require any detailed balance relation to be fulfilled. Rather, the system must satisfy a general additivity property, ...
متن کاملThermodynamic aspects of nonequilibrium current fluctuations
Starting from a macroscopic nonequilibrium entropy, we obtain an expression for the nonequilibrium fluctuations of the electric current in a metallic resistor. Our method goes further than previous theories of irreversible thermodynamics and, as well as microscopic entropies, it leads to results of the same order of magnitude but not completely coincident with the full nonequilibrium correction...
متن کاملAxiomatic Definition of Entropy for Nonequilibrium States
In introductory courses and textbooks on elementary thermodynamics, entropy is often presented as a property defined only for equilibrium states, and its axiomatic definition is almost invariably given in terms of a heat to temperature ratio, the traditional Clausius definition. Teaching thermodynamics to undergraduate and graduate students from all over the globe, we have sensed a need for mor...
متن کاملIrreversible-thermodynamic approach to nonequilibrium heat fluctuations
Starting from a generalized nonequilibrium entropy, and from an extension of the Einstein formula for the probability of the fluctuations, we obtain the second moments of nonequilibrium fluctuations of the specific energy and the heat flux in rigid heat conductors. This approach leads to nonequilibrium corrections to the usual fluctuationdissipation expressions for the heat fluctuations. The co...
