we have used a variational approach to calculate some thermodynamic properties of the quasi-one dimensional liquid 3he such as the energy, entropy, free energy, equation of state and heat capacity at finite temperature. we have employed the lennard-jones potential as the inter-atomic interaction. we have seen that the total energy increases by increasing both temperature and density. as expecte...

entropy generation in an unsteady hydromagnetic couette flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid between two infinite horizontal parallel plates in a rotating system have been analyzed. both the lower and upper plates of the channel are subjected to asymmetric convective heat exchange with the ambient following the newton's law of cooling. a numerical solution for governin...

This work assesses the cortical and the sub-cortical neural activity recorded from rodents using entropy and mutual information based approaches to study how hypothermia affects neural activity. By applying the multi-scale entropy and Shannon entropy, we quantify the degree of the regularity embedded in the cortical and sub-cortical neurons and characterize the dependency of entropy of these re...

This study is focused on the entropy production due to laminar forced convection in the entrance region of a concentric cylindrical annulus. The present hydrodynamic and temperature fields are obtained numerically. Local entropy generation distributions are obtained based on the resulting velocity and temperature fields by solving the entropy generation equation. The effect of different flow pa...

The necessity for decrease in consumption of conventional fuel, related energy and to promote the use of renewable sources such as biofuels, demands for the effective evaluation of the performance of engines based on laws of thermodynamics. Energy, exergy, entropy generation, mean gas temperature and exhaust gas temperature analysis of CI engine using diesel and karanja methyl ester blends at d...

Mean values of any observable variable are always calculated in a coherent state as in a mixed state because the coherent state is an eigenstate of non-Hermitian operator. Thus, we propose the concept of a coherent ensemble closely resemble the canonical ensemble. The entropy and temperature are naturally defined for the coherent ensemble. As an example, entropy and temperature are evaluated fo...

The entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid in rotational flow between two concentric cylinders is examined when the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is revolved with a constant angular speed. The viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid is considered at the same time interdependent on temperature and shear rate. The Nahme law and Carreau equation are used to modeling dependenc...
