Abstract

The linear response of an equilibrium system to a perturbation by a conservative force is given by the well-known fluctuation-dissipation theorem. The theorem relates the linear response function to a correlation in the unperturbed dynamics of the observable with the entropy flux. In chapter 3 we study how this relation can be generalized to systems with non-equilibrium dynamics. We find that the linear response function can be written as a sum of correlation functions in the unperturbed non-equilibrium dynamics. One of the terms is again a correlation between the observable and the entropy flux due to the perturbation. The other term is a correlation between the observable and a new, less familiar quantity known as dynamical activity. We give a general algorithm for calculating the generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation and we apply it to a number of relevant examples.An important topic in thermodynamics is the study of the heat due totemperature changes, known as calorimetry. The study of heat capacities atlow temperatures was historically one of the motivations for the developmentof the quantum theory. But this study was limited to equilibrium systems. Inchapter 4 we study the Clausius heat theorem in a non-equilibrium setting,and we propose a possible extension of the concept of heat capacities for suchsystems. We show that unlike its equilibrium counterpart, this heat capacitycan be negative. We study this heat capacity by several worked-out examples.

Abstract

The single objective of this book is to provide engineers with the capability, tools, and confidence to solve real-world heat transfer problems. It includes many advanced topics, such as Bessel functions, Laplace transforms, separation of variables, Duhamel's theorem, and complex combination, as well as high order explicit and implicit numerical integration algorithms. These analytical and numerical solution methods are applied to topics not considered in most textbooks. Examples are heat exchangers involving fluids with varying specific heats or phase changes; heat exchangers in which axial conduction is a concern; and regenerators. To improve readability, derivations of important results are presented completely, without skipping steps, which reduces student frustration and improves retention. The examples in the book are ubiquitous, not trivial "textbook" exercises. They are rather complex and timely real-world problems that are inherently interesting. This textbook integrates the computational software packages Maple, MATLAB, FEHT, and Engineering Equation Solver (EES) directly with the heat transfer material.

Abstract

Toegepaste Energieleer - wartme en stromingsleer behandelt de natuurkundige basis die nodig is om processen waarin energieomzetting en -transport plaatsvindt te analyseren. In dit boek worden zowel de warmteleer, de stromingsleer als het warmtetransport behandeld. Er is dus slechts één studieboek nodig die deze onderwerpen - in samenhang - behandelen. In de hoofdstukken over warmteleer komen de ideale gaswetten, omkeerbare en onomkeerbare toestandsveranderingen, kringprocessen en open systemen aan bod. 

De hoofdstukken van de stromingsleer behandelen stroming (van gas en vloeistof) in buizen en om lichamen in zowel stationaire als instationaire systemen. In de hoofdstukken over warmtetransport worden zowel stationaire als instationaire warmtetransportproblemen behandeld waarbij nader ingegaan wordt op de bepaling van warmteoverdrachtscoëfficiënten en het oplossen van stralingsnetwerken.
