Abstract: The problem of the compressible flow of a perfect gas with constant fractional ionization through a magnetic field is considered. The Joulean heat dissipation is assumed to be taken out of ...

Abstract: The definitions employed in classical thermodynamics are revised and a single axiom is stated from which all the relations of classical thermodynamics can be deduced. A detailed discussion of ...

Abstract: The object of this theoretical investigation is to obtain a set of equations which will predict the behavior of a fluid as it changes phase. Irreversible thermodynamics is employed to obtain ...

Abstract: The object of this theoretical investigation is to determine the importance of the nonequilibrium region, which exists at the bubble wall, on the growth of a vapor bubble. All previous ...
