Conformal and Stochastic Non-Autonomous Dynamical Systems

Description: In this dissertation we focus on the application of thermodynamic formalism to non-autonomous and random dynamical systems. Specifically we use the thermodynamic formalism to investigate the dimension of various fractal constructions via the, now standard, technique of Bowen which he developed in his 1979 paper on quasi-Fuchsian groups. Bowen showed, roughly speaking, that the dimension of a fractal is equal to the zero of the relevant topological pressure function. We generalize the results of… more

Thermodynamics of Irreversible Processes: The Experimental Verification of the Onsager Reciprocal Relations

Description: Report discussing theories of irreversible thermodynamic processes. "The purpose of this review is to collect the presently available experimental data for a variety of quite different irreversible phenomena and to show that this evidence does indeed verify the Onsager Reciprocal Relations."

Heats of Formation of Some Aqueous Ions of Americium

Description: Abstract: "The heats of formation of Pr-(+3) (aq.) and La-(+3) (aq.) have been measured in 1.5M HCl at 25 C. to be -165.9 +/- 0.9 kcal/mol and -167.0 +/- 0.7 kcal/mol, respectively. The heat of formation of Am-(+3) (aq.) under the same conditions was found to be -161.3 +/- 1.4 kcal/mol. The latter value made it possible to calculate the heat of formation of Am-(+4) (aq.) as -112.2 kcal/mol. It was impossible at this time to determine the heats of formation of AmO2+ (aq.) and AmO2++ (aq.)."

The Volume Thermodynamics of Liquids

Description: From preface: In the following chapters, I have commenced a serious study of the volume thermodynamics of liquids and solids. The work is, as yet, confined to volume, pressure, and temperature. Questions involving entropy and energy are also in active progress, but can not be included in the present bulletin.

Thermal properties of PZT95/5(1.8Nb) and PSZT ceramics.

Description: Thermal properties of niobium-modified PZT95/5(1.8Nb) and PSZT ceramics used for the ferroelectric power supply have been studied from -100 C to 375 C. Within this temperature range, these materials exhibit ferroelectric-ferroelectric and ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transformations. The thermal expansion coefficient, heat capacity, and thermal diffusivity of different phases were measured. Thermal conductivity and Grueneisen constant were calculated at several selected temperatures between… more

Exergy sustainability.

Description: Exergy is the elixir of life. Exergy is that portion of energy available to do work. Elixir is defined as a substance held capable of prolonging life indefinitely, which implies sustainability of life. In terms of mathematics and engineering, exergy sustainability is defined as the continuous compensation of irreversible entropy production in an open system with an impedance and capacity-matched persistent exergy source. Irreversible and nonequilibrium thermodynamic concepts are combined with s… more

Thermodynamic Analysis of Multicomponent Working Fluids for Rankine Bottoming Cycle Applications

Description: The basic equations underlying a computer code are developed to describe the thermodynamic behavior of multi-component working fluids in Rankine cycles. The code is to be employed in the performance analysis of Rankine bottoming cycle systems. The performance of such systems depends strongly on the working fluid characteristics. The introduction of multi-component mixtures makes available a broad spectrum of fluid properties achievable by varying the mixture composition. The code provides a too… more

Corrosion and Mechanical Behavior of Materials for Coal Gasification Applications

Description: A state-of-the-art review is presented on the corrosion and mechanical behavior of materials at elevated temperatures in coal-gasification environments. The gas atmosphere in coal-conversion processes are, in general, complex mixtures which contain sulfur-bearing components (hydrogen sulfide, SO2, and COS) as well as oxidants (carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide and water/hydrogen). The information developed over the last five years clearly shows sulfidation to be the major mode of material degradat… more

COMMIX-SA-1: a Three-Dimensional Thermohydrodynamic Computer Program for Solar Applications

Description: COMMIX-SA-1 is a three-dimensional, transient, single-phase, compressible-flow, component computer program for thermohydrodynamic analysis. It was developed for solar applications in general, and for analysis of thermocline storage tanks in particular. The conservation equations (in cylindrical coordinates) for mass, momentum, and energy are solved as an initial-boundary-value problem. The detailed numerical-solution procedure based on a modified ICE (Implicit Continuous-Fluid Eulerian) techniq… more
