However, there is no quantity in heat transfer theory corresponding to the electrical potential energy of a capacitor or the gravitation potential energy of a fluid in a vessel. Hence, Guo et al. [112] defined a state quantity, entransy, which was previously referred to as the heat transport...
A thermodynamic potential in local thermal equilibrium, or the so-called Masseiu-Planck functional, is identified as a generating functional for conserved currents such as the energy-momentum tensor and the electric current.doi:10.1016/j.aop.2017.04.004Hongo...
Full size table In the mixed state of highTcsuperconductor with disorders belowBc2they induce barriers for the vortex motion and three different situations can be expected; (1) the energy barrierU0is lower than the temperature and can be neglected. This state is referred as the unpinned vortex ...
It is known that the atomic-scale simulations need to determine the PES that provides the potential energy as a function of atomic positions. In principle, the most accurate PES can be obtained by quantum mechanics calculations, which is however very time-consuming and even prohibitive for large ...
We started our work from conventional unit cells belonging to the cubic space group Ia3¯ and containing 16 cell formula units (Z = 16) for the study of all the systems of our interest. The optimization of the cell is performed by searching for the Potential Energy Surface (PES) lo...
Thermal energy storage (TES) systems are high-pressure liquid storage tanks used along with a solar thermal system to allow plants to bank several hours of potential electricity. Off-peak storage is a critical component to the effectiveness of solar thermal power plants. Three primary TES ...

Present simple formulae in line with normal text, where possible. Use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms such as X/Y. Present variables in italics. Denote powers of e by exp. Display equations separately from your text, numbering them consecutively in the...
In this formula: α is the linear expansion coefficient of a substance (1/K); ΔL is the expansion or contraction value of a specimen(mm); L is the length before heating or cooling(mm); Δt is the temperature differe...
Doolittle's free volume inEq. (12)is different from the physical free volume. It is made to vanish atT0, where the domain size reaches infinity. This is anad hocformula, and it is difficult to define it using physically tractable variables other than the implied parameters that fit the rel...
