In many industrial applications as well as in nature, the mass transfer of CO2 at vapor-liquid interfaces in aqueous systems plays an important role. In this work, this process was studied on the atomistic level using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. In a first step, a molecular model of the system water + CO2 was developed that represents both bulk and interfacial equilibrium properties well. This system is characterized by a very large adsorption and enrichment of CO2 at the vapor-liquid interface. Then, non-equilibrium mass transfer simulations were carried out using a method that was developed recently: CO2 is inserted into the vapor phase of a simulation box which contains a liquid slab. Surprising effects are observed at the interface such as a net repulsion of CO2 particles from the interface and a complex time dependence of the amount of CO2 adsorbed at the interface.
在许多工业应用和自然界中,二氧化碳在水性体系的汽液界面上的传质都发挥着重要作用。在这项工作中,我们利用非平衡分子动力学模拟在原子水平上研究了这一过程。首先,我们建立了水 + CO2 系统的分子模型,该模型能很好地反映体液和界面的平衡特性。该系统的特点是二氧化碳在汽液界面上的大量吸附和富集。然后,使用最近开发的一种方法进行了非平衡传质模拟:在包含液态板坯的模拟箱中的气相中加入二氧化碳。在界面上观察到了令人惊讶的效应,如二氧化碳颗粒对界面的净排斥以及界面上二氧化碳吸附量的复杂时间依赖性。

The complete description of energy and material transport within the Generalized energy-conserving dissipative particle dynamics with mass transfer (GenDPDE-M) methodology is presented. In particular, the dynamic coupling between mass and energy is incorporated into the GenDPDE-M, which was previously introduced with dynamically decoupled fluxes (J. Bonet Avalos et al., J. Chem. Theory Comput., 18 (12): 7639–7652, 2022). From a theoretical perspective, we have derived the appropriate Fluctuation-Dissipation theorems along with Onsager’s reciprocal relations, suitable for mesoscale models featuring this coupling. Equilibrium and non-equilibrium simulations are performed to demonstrate the internal thermodynamic consistency of the method, as well as the ability to capture the Ludwig–Soret effect, and tune its strength through the mesoscopic parameters. In view of the completeness of the presented approach, GenDPDE-M is the most general Lagrangian method to deal with complex fluids and systems at the mesoscale, where thermal agitation is relevant.

We optimize one-qubit Novikov quantum heat engines with a dissipative heat leak using the formalisms of open-system Quantum Mechanics and the Finite-Time Thermodynamics. We show that the leak changes the power-efficiency and the efficient-power-efficiency curves, reduces the maximum efficiency of the machine and does not change its power. We also discuss the effects of the leak on the power that is rejected from the machine to the environment. Finally, we study the high-temperature limit to check that the engine reduces in this limit to a classic Novikov heat engine.

We present the results of experimental study on measuring the thermodiffusion, molecular diffusion and Soret coefficients of polystyrene (4,880 g/mol) in the pure solvents toluene and cyclohexane at 298 K and atmospheric pressure. The experiments have been carried out for a wide range of concentrations, starting from the diluted state with 2 % polystyrene mass fraction (proposed in the DCMIX4 project) up to the semidilute regime of 20 % polystyrene mass fraction. In addition, we present a complete characterisation of the thermophysical properties of the analysed mixtures. Thermodiffusion, molecular diffusion and Soret coefficients of binary polymeric samples have been measured by combining the traditional thermogravitational column technique, the thermogravitational microcolumn and the optical beam deflection method. In toluene, the obtained experimental results are consistent with literature, showing that the magnitude of the mass transport thermoproperties decrease significantly with increasing polystyrene concentration, which is a first indication of an approaching glass transition in the concentrated regime. The results for thermodiffusion and molecular diffusion coefficients in cyclohexane as a function of concentration exhibit a similar trend. Nevertheless, the Soret coefficient seems to show an opposite tendency for the two solvents, increasing in magnitude for cyclohexane, at least up to the analysed polystyrene concentration.
我们介绍了在 298 K 和大气压力下测量聚苯乙烯(4,880 g/mol)在纯溶剂甲苯和环己烷中的热扩散、分子扩散和索雷特系数的实验研究结果。实验的浓度范围很广,从聚苯乙烯质量分数为 2% 的稀释状态(DCMIX4 项目中提出)到聚苯乙烯质量分数为 20% 的半稀释状态。此外,我们还对所分析混合物的热物理性质进行了全面描述。我们结合传统的热重柱法、热重微柱法和光束偏转法,测量了二元聚合物样品的热扩散、分子扩散和索雷特系数。在甲苯中,获得的实验结果与文献一致,表明随着聚苯乙烯浓度的增加,质量输运热性能的大小显著下降,这是聚苯乙烯在浓缩体系中接近玻璃化转变的第一个迹象。环己烷中的热扩散系数和分子扩散系数随浓度变化的结果也呈现出类似的趋势。不过,索雷特系数在这两种溶剂中似乎呈现出相反的趋势,环己烷的索雷特系数增大,至少在分析的聚苯乙烯浓度范围内是如此。

The balance equation of angular momentum in anisotropic fluids includes a couple stress contribution, also responsible for an antisymmetric contribution to the force stress tensor. We herein derive all balance equations for the simplest anisotropic fluid, i.e., a polar fluid, using the GENERIC formalism of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. In doing so, we find that there is an inconsistency between the internal energy density evolution equation derived using non-equilibrium thermodynamics and the one usually considered in micropolar theory.

We have developed a new double-pass optical beam deflection instrument for the measurement of diffusion, thermodiffusion and Soret coefficients in liquid mixtures. The increased sensitivity of the instrument results from a second passage of the readout laser beam through the Soret cell containing the sample. An elegant description of the total beam deflection is achieved by means of a transfer matrix formalism. The higher sensitivity allows for a reduction of the length of the detection arm and a compact and stiff design of the instrument. The performance of the new apparatus is demonstrated by its application to polymer analysis for the determination of the molar mass distribution of the polymer from the distribution of diffusion rates by means of the CONTIN algorithm.

Even when microscopic particle dynamics is purely mechanistic and thus reversible, the behavior of macroscopic systems composed of those particles is irreversible. In other words, effectively irreversible behavior emerges out of purely reversible dynamics when we do not observe all degrees of freedom of the detailed dynamics. But how can we find the irreversible macroscopic evolution equations when we only know the reversible microscopic equations? Using the so-called lack-of-fit reduction, which gives the reduced evolution as a sum of Hamiltonian and gradient dynamics, we reduce the purely Hamiltonian Kac–Zwanzig model to a set of irreversible evolution equations with no fitting parameters.

The JETC Conference held in Salerno (June 12–17, 2023) was the opportunity to honor the two centuries anniversary of the booklet publication of Sadi Carnot. The paper reports on a selective review summarizing the evolution of the ideas and concepts proposed by Carnot. We consider mainly: a. The Carnot cycle relative to thermomechanical engine, b. The concept of efficiency (Carnot efficiency), c. The forms of energy (thermal energy or heat, Q, and mechanical energy or work, W), d. The concept of entropy, rediscovered and completed by Clausius. We show the importance of the energy conversion irreversibilities that started to be considered more recently by two methods, namely, the ratio method and the entropy production method. The second approach provides more significant results from a global point of view, also with more local modeling (cycle process modeling). Some examples are given that illustrate the proposal: Carnot cycle in endo-irreversible or exo-reversible configuration, Chambadal modeling, Curzon–Ahlborn modeling. More generally, the modeling is done in the frame of FTT (Finite Time Thermodynamics), FST (Finite Speed Thermodynamics), or FDOT (Finite physical Dimensions Optimal Thermodynamics). Preliminary conclusions and perspectives are proposed.

A novel approach is proposed for optimal designing two-stage thermoelectric coolers using the biogeography-based optimization algorithm. For the comprehensiveness of the research, both types of two-stage coolers, including electrically serial and separated stages, have been investigated. Using the proposed procedure, first by selecting the most important performance parameters of the cooler, i.e. COP and the cooling capacity as objective functions, the efficiency and the validity of the approach are proved by comparing the results with results of the previous researchers. In all the examined cases, the proposed approach has led to the enhancing of the cooler performance. The results of single-objective optimization showed that using the proposed method, the cooling capacity and COP can be improved up to 17 % and 8.5 % compared to the previous designs, respectively. In the following, multi-objective optimization of thermoelectric coolers is conducted, taking into account both the objectives of the COP and the cooling capacity. Finally, Pareto optimal solutions and the exergetic efficiency of the optimized cooler were calculated for different values of the weight factor of the multi-objective function. The results of multi-objective optimization showed that by increasing the COP weight factor in the objective function, the exergetic efficiency of the refrigeration system enhances.

Employing the Laplace transform and its properties, we investigate the evolution of the coupled thermal and fluid-acoustic waveforms that arise in a signaling problem under the Eringen–Cattaneo–Christov–Straughan model of poroacoustic phenomena. Assuming a Heaviside temperature input, we determine the effects of what we term the “Eringen coefficient” by examining the propagation and evolution of the resulting shock and/or acceleration waveforms. Special/limiting cases are also discussed and, in the final section of this Note, possible follow-on studies are suggested.
