A Review of Entropy Generation in Rectangular Cavities

Entropy generation is a thermodynamic system attribute representing the direction or result of spontaneous changes within the system. This article uses an entropy generation analysis to examine the thermodynamic optimum in square cavities. Numerous studies have documented using entropy generation analysis as an evaluation measure. This research will utilise entropy generation in various types of convective heat transfer under multiple factors. Furthermore, the problem formulation and outcomes regarding entropy generation in square cavities are presented and summarised in a table. To summarise, the primary goal in dealing with this problem is to get an ideal configuration that maximises energy efficiency through minimising entropy generation and enhancing heat transfer rate. This review study sets the framework for future investigations into entropy production analysis to boost energy efficiency.
