Plate finned-tube heat exchanger (PFTHX) is a kind of simple and frequently used heat exchanger in industry. A bacterial colony chemotaxis (BCC) optimization algorithm is applied to the optimization of geometry parameters such as the fin number, tube row number, tube column number, etc. of a PFTHX, and the optimization objective is the total manufacture cost or the thermodynamics performance indices...
In this paper we establish a formal link between network complexity in terms of Birkhoff-von Newmann decompositions and heat flow complexity (in terms of quantifying the heat flowing through the network at a given inverse temperature). Furthermore, we also define heat flow complexity in terms of thermodynamic depth, which results in a novel approach for characterizing networks and quantify their complexity...
Hypersonic Glide Vehicle (HGV) is one of the most possible ways to put the available hypersonic technology into practice. It is very important for the thermal protection system (TPS) of HGV to predict the heating on the surface fleetly and accurately. In this paper, one quick-predict method for a typical HGV with conically derived waverider construction and skip-glide trajectory was investigated firstly...
In this paper, we combine the two universalisms of thermodynamics and dynamical systems theory to develop a dynamical system formalism for classical thermodynamics.
