Tools of Finite-time Thermodynamics
Finite-time thermodynamics is the extension of traditional reversible thermodynamics to include the extra requirement that the process in question goes to completion in a specified finite length of time. As such it is by definition a branch of irreversible thermodynamics, but unlike most other versions of irreversible thermodynamics, finite-time thermodynamics does not require or assume any kno...
متن کاملEntropy Generation in Computation and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Landauer discussed the minimum energy necessary for computation and stated that erasure of information is accompanied by heat generation to the amount of kT ln 2/bit. Modifying the above statement, we claim that erasure of information is accompanied by entropy generation k ln 2/bit. Some new concepts will be introduced in the field of thermodynamics that are implicitly included in our statement...
متن کاملCurrent trends in finite-time thermodynamics.
The cornerstone of finite-time thermodynamics is all about the price of haste and how to minimize it. Reversible processes may be ultimately efficient, but they are unrealistically slow. In all situations-chemical, mechanical, economical-we pay extra to get the job done quickly. Finite-time thermodynamics can be used to develop methods to limit that extra expenditure, be it in energy, entropy p...
متن کاملSome Issues in Finite-Time Thermodynamics
The article responds to recent criticisms of finite-time thermodynamics. The issues concern a difference in viewpoint between analyses that seek in-principle physical insights and analyses that seek an efficient engineering solution to current problems with current technology and prices. The paper also highlights some of the achievements of the subject including recent implications for the desi...
متن کاملThermodynamics Constrains Allometric Scaling of Optimal Development Time in Insects
Development time is a critical life-history trait that has profound effects on organism fitness and on population growth rates. For ectotherms, development time is strongly influenced by temperature and is predicted to scale with body mass to the quarter power based on 1) the ontogenetic growth model of the metabolic theory of ecology which describes a bioenergetic balance between tissue mainte...
