Abstract:
The Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) concept is analyzed as an exergy storage concept. A thermodynamic analysis involving the application of the first and second laws of thermodynamics to both the charge and discharge processes is made. Works, heats, cavern energy changes, cavern exergy changes, and dissipations are evaluated for two designs—one idealized and the other more practical. An appropriate effectiveness based on the exergy concept is defined and evaluated.

Abstract:
Abstract The primary goal of this paper is to validate the use of the anelastic approximation for fluids with a complex equation of state such as moist air or seawater. The anelastic approximation is based on a leading-order expansion of the equations of motion for a compressible fluid in terms of density. Its application to atmospheric flows has been based on a dry framework that treats phase transitions as an external energy source. However, cloudy air is more accurately described as a two-phase fluid in which condensed water and water vapor are in thermodynamic equilibrium. Thermodynamic eq

A quantitative perspective of describing hurricane energetics as that of an adiabatic atmospheric process occurring at the expense of condensation of water vapor that creates drop of local air pressure, is outlined.

First, Detailed chemical reaction model of gasoline-air mixture thermal ignition is discussed. that is, chemical reaction chains of controlling of thermal ignition are got according to the characteristic of gasoline-air mixture; through sensitivity analysis of temperature and species concentration, reaction equations are selected within a certain temperature range; based on the relation between chemical reaction rate of species and thermodynamic parameters, both the rate of species

Abstract:
Thermodynamic principles are basic to an understanding of the complex fluxes of energy and information required to keep cells alive. These microscopic machines are nonequilibrium systems at the micron scale that are maintained in pseudo-steady-state conditions by very sophisticated processes. Therefore, several nonstandard concepts need to be taught to rationalize why these very ordered systems proliferate actively all over our planet in seeming contradiction to the second law of thermodynamics. We propose a model consisting of boxes with different shapes that contain small balls that are in c

AbstractWe present a two-dimensional, coupled, mesoscale atmosphere–sea-ice model, and apply it to simulate the air–ice interaction during warm-air advection. The model was run into a steady state under various conditions with respect to the season, cloud cover and wind speed. The spatial and temporal evolution of the thermodynamics of the ice, snow and the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) were investigated. The development of the stably stratified ABL downwind of the ice edge depended above all on the wind speed and cloud cover. If the turbulent heat flux from air to snow was large enough to

Abstract:
This paper is concerned with thermodynamic analysis of the process of single-layer drying of apple slices by means of a cyclone-type dryer. Using the first law of thermodynamics, energy analysis was performed to estimate the ratios of energy utilization throughout the drying process. Exergy analysis was carried out to determine exergy losses during the drying process by applying the second law of thermodynamics. It was concluded that the exergy losses increased with increasing energy utilization in both trays and the drying chamber. Values of the energy utilization ratio (EUR) of the drying ch

Abstract:
The paper presents energy and exergy analysis of a typical dwelling ventilation system with heat recovery for Ukrainian climatic conditions using a quasi-steady state approach over 24-hour time-steps. Evaluation of such systems on the base of the first law of thermodynamics demonstrates that heat recovery is beneficial for the whole variety of operational modes. Such methodology identifies as a thermodynamic inefficiency only energy losses to the surroundings with the exhaust air. The exergy-based analysis can detect additional inefficiencies due to irreversibilities within the components of t
