aThis paper describes the use of endoreversible thermodynamics to evaluate the behavior of a mechanical compression refrigeration system. The coefficients of performance of the endoreversible Carnot Cycle, COPCE, were obtained by including the external irreversibility associated with heat transfer. The rea...

This conception must be consistent with the theory of relativity, which is possible if we consider that one of the consequences of its postulates is the causality of the system, so that the sequence of events is the same in all reference systems, regardless of the fact that the space-time ...
What is the second law of thermodynamics? Ans. Any isolated system’s entropy never diminishes. The total of the entropies of connecting thermodynamic sy...Read full What are the different types of Irreversibility? Ans. The two types of Irreversibility are external Irreversibility and interna...

One hundred and thirty years after the work of Ludwig Boltzmann on the interpretation of the irreversibility of physical phenomena, and one century after Einstein's formulation of Special Relativity, we are still not sure what we mean when we talk of “time” or “arrow of time”. We shall...
"Much later, when I discussed the problem with Einstein, he remarked that the introduction of the cosmological term was the biggest blunder he ever made in his life. But this “blunder,” rejected by Einstein, is still sometimes used by cosmologists even
