The thermodynamic dissipations in crystalline silicon solar cells are identified and evaluated. The ratio of the exergy of the output electrical power to the exergy of the input solar radiation is the effectiveness of the solar cell. The input exergy

We describe a transient two-dimensional model of forced convection-stabilized electric arcs, such as those which occur in gas-blast circuit breakers. The model solves the local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) conservation equations of mass, momentum,

The controversy over the proper expression for the theoretical maximum conversion efficiency of solar devices is resolved. The correct expression, ηmax = 1 −4/3 (To/Ts), relates to the maximum work that can be done by a device which accepts blackb

The flow of aqueous salt solutions in thin free-surface films is analyzed with a simple physico-chemical model. In addition to gravity, gradients in temperature, solute concentration and electric potential act as forces on the film. Through surface-t

It is demonstrated that the form of the energy-dissipation equation which describes thermoelectric and thermomagnetic generators is greatly dependent on the choice of dependent variables in the coupled equations used to describe the devices. If “na

Finite difference techniques are applied to the problem of slightly viscous, incompressible, constant pressure flow confined by boundaries (solid or porous) on which the "no-slip" condition prevails. The "stepwise" representation and method of soluti
