Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
A Logical Error in the Single Axiom for Classical Thermodynamics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
The Design and Performance Optimization of Thermal System Components
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A general analytical approach which directly determines the optimum thermodynamic and economic behavior of thermal systems and which is described in detail in von Spakovsky and Evans (1987) and ...
Thermoeconomics and the Design of Heat Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper formulates the interactions between thermodynamics and economics for complex systems in a manner which assures a wise use of nonrenewable energy resources. The concept of “essergy” ...
Engineering Functional Analysis—Part I
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the essential building blocks of a new formalism called Engineering Functional Analysis (EFA) are presented. This formalism results in higher degrees of decentralization for ...
Engineering Functional Analysis—Part II
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a new formalism called Engineering Functional Analysis (EFA) is presented. This formalism results in higher degrees of decentralization for engineering system optimization than is ...
The Design and Performance Optimization of Thermal Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Optimization techniques are, in general, still not used today in the design and performance analysis of thermal systems and their components. The engineer’s search for the best system configuration ...
