Finite Physical Dimensions Optimal Thermodynamics 2: Complex Systems

Finite Physical Dimensions Optimal Thermodynamics 2 is the result of 30 years of teaching and research in the field of thermodynamics of systems and processes. It starts from FTT during the seventies (and P Chambadal approach in France) as well as the equilibrium thermodynamics from Carnot but also TPIL from Onsager. This book shows that thermodynamics proposes now more realistic results than equilibrium thermodynamics ones. Focusing on multidisciplinary approach that characterizes thermodynamics particularly the connexion between transfer phenomena and conversion of energy. A synthesis of years of teaching and research It proposes a view of the evolution of knowledge regarding the thermodynamics modeling of systems and processesIt appears more precise results than before and also the existence of optimum all along the development INDICE: 1. From thermostatistics to nonequilibrium thermodynamics 2. Heat Exchangers 3. From Carnot's cycle to Carnot's machine 4. Combustion engines speed revisited 5. Turbines and combustion gases; other engines 6. Reverse cycle machines 7. Extensions to systems other than thermomechanical 8. From machines to complex systems 9. Integration - Systems hybridation 10. Conclusion - Perspective
