Temperature jump and velocity slip in the moment method

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the case of 13 and 14 moments and show that the temperature jumps at the walls are dependent on the values of all moments in front of the wall and the results obtained by the minimax principle are compared with results obtained for the same problem by a minimum principle for the global entropy production.

The (Mathematical) Modeling Process in Biosciences.

TL;DR: The objective is to sum up the common procedures during the formalization and analysis of a biological problem from the perspective of Systems Biology, which approaches the study of biological systems as a whole.

Multi-parameter optimization of shell-and-tube heat exchanger with helical baffles based on entransy theory

TL;DR: In this paper, an optimization strategy combined the entransy theory and genetic algorithm was proposed in order to optimize the configuration of shell-and-tube heat exchanger with helical baffles.

Simultaneous extrema in the entropy production for steady-state fluid flow in parallel pipes

TL;DR: For a constant total flow rate, the flow can satisfy (i) a pipe network minimum entropy production (MinEP) principle with respect to the flow rates, and (ii) the MaxEP principle of Ziegler and Paltridge.

Higher Power Output in a PEMFC Operating under Autonomous Oscillatory Conditions in the Presence of CO

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that autonomous oscillatory operation of fuel cells in the presence of CO can increase the power output as compared to that in stable steady-state operation.
