This paper aims to discuss the gravitationally induced particle creation in the framework of [Formula: see text] theory, which involves the non-minimal coupling (NMC) between Gauss–Bonnet (GB) invariant, [Formula: see text] and trace of the energy–momentum tensor (EMT), [Formula: see text]. Here, NMC between matter and gravitational sector results in non-divergence of EMT. We discuss the generalized conservation equation for the irreversible process of matter creation with the help of generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT). Particle creation rate, creation pressure, entropy production rate and temperature are obtained for this theory using flat FRW geometry. We work on three particular [Formula: see text] models and study cosmological implications of open irreversible thermodynamics. Furthermore, the impact of NMC on cosmological evolution and entropy production is briefly discussed.

This work is to introduce a new kind of modified gravitational theory, named as [Formula: see text] (also [Formula: see text]) gravity, where [Formula: see text] is the Ricci scalar, [Formula: see text] is Gauss–Bonnet invariant and [Formula: see text] is the trace of the energy–momentum tensor. With the help of different models in this gravity, we investigate some physical features of different relativistic compact stars. For this purpose, we develop the effectively modified field equations, conservation equation, and the equation of motion for test particle. Then, we check the impact of additional force (massive test particle followed by a nongeodesic line of geometry) on compact objects. Furthermore, we took three notable stars named as [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The physical behavior of the energy density, anisotropic pressures, different energy conditions, stability, anisotropy, and the equilibrium scenario of these strange compact stars are analyzed through various plots. Finally, we conclude that the energy conditions hold, and the core of these stars is so dense.

Thermodynamics of the evolving Lorentzian wormhole at the apparent horizon is investigated in [Formula: see text] gravity. Redefining the energy density and the pressure, the continuity equation is satisfied and the field equations in [Formula: see text] gravity reduce to the ones in general relativity. However, the energy–momentum tensor includes all the corrections from [Formula: see text] gravity. Therefore, one can apply the standard entropy-area relation within [Formula: see text] gravity. It is shown that there may be an equivalency between the field equations and the first law of thermodynamics. It seems that an equilibrium thermodynamics may be held on the apparent horizon. The validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSL) is also investigated in the wormholes.

We consider the particle creation scenario in the dynamical Chern-Simons modified gravity in the presence of perfect fluid equation of state p=(γ-1)ρ. By assuming various modified entropies (Bekenstein entropy logarithmic entropy, power law correction, and Renyi entropy), we investigate the first law of thermodynamics and generalized second law of thermodynamics on the apparent horizon. In the presence of particle creation rate, we discuss the generalized second law of thermodynamics and thermal equilibrium condition. It is found that thermodynamics laws and equilibrium condition remain valid under certain conditions of parameters.

In modeling and designing micro combined heat and power cycle most important point is recognition of how the cycle operates based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics simultaneously. Analyzing data obtained from thermodynamic analysis employed to optimize MCHP cycle. The data obtained from prime mover optimization has been used for basic stimulus cycle. Assumptions considered for prime mover optimization has been improved, for example in making optimum operation condition by using genetic algorithms constant pressure combustion chamber was considered. The exact value of downstream and upstream pressure changes in the combustion chamber reaction has been obtained. After extraction of the appropriate relationship for the primary stimulus cycle, data required for the overall cycle analysis identified, By using these data optimum total cycle efficiency and constructing the first and second laws of thermodynamics has been calculated for it. After reviewing Thermodynamic governing relations in each cycle and using the optimum values that the prime mover has been optimized with, other cycles have been optimized. In best performance condition of cycle, electrical efficiency was 41 percent and the overall efficiency of the cycle was 88 percent, respectively. After using the second law of thermodynamics mathematical model Second law of thermodynamics efficiency and entropy production rate was estimated. Second law of thermodynamics yield best performance against the 45.14 percent and the rate of entropy production in this case equal to 0.099 kW/K respectively.

AbstractResearchers in thermoelectricity with backgrounds in non-equilibrium thermodynamics, thermoelectric engineering or condensed-matter physics tend to use different choices of flux densities and generalized forces. These choices are seldom justified from either the dissipation function or the entropy production rate. Because thermoelectric phenomena are a primary focus in several emerging fields, particularly in recent energy-oriented developments, a review of the different formalisms employed is judged timely. A systematic classification of the transport equations is presented here. The requirements on valid transport equations imposed by the invariance of the entropy production are clearly explained. The effective Peltier and Seebeck coefficients, and the thermal conductivity, corresponding to the different choices of flux densities and generalized forces, are identified. Emphasis is made on illustrating the compatibility of apparently disparate formalisms. The advantages and drawbacks of these formalisms are discussed, especially from the point of view of the experimental determination of their thermoelectric coefficients.

The principle of maximum entropy production (MEP) seeks to better understand a large variety of the Earth's environmental and ecological systems by postulating that processes far from thermodynamic equilibrium will ‘adapt to steady states at which they dissipate energy and produce entropy at the maximum possible rate’. Our aim in this ‘outside view’, invited by Axel Kleidon, is to focus on what we think is an outstanding challenge for MEP and for irreversible thermodynamics in general: making specific predictions about the relative contribution of individual processes to entropy production. Using studies that compared entropy production in the atmosphere of a dry versus humid Earth, we show that two systems might have the same entropy production rate but very different internal dynamics of dissipation. Using the results of several of the papers in this special issue and a thought experiment, we show that components of life-containing systems can evolve to either lower or raise the entropy production rate. Our analysis makes explicit fundamental questions for MEP that should be brought into focus: can MEP predict not just the overall state of entropy production of a system but also the details of the sub-systems of dissipaters within the system? Which fluxes of the system are those that are most likely to be maximized? How it is possible for MEP theory to be so domain-neutral that it can claim to apply equally to both purely physical–chemical systems and also systems governed by the ‘laws’ of biological evolution? We conclude that the principle of MEP needs to take on the issue of exactly how entropy is produced.

A study of Bianchi Type I cosmological model is undertaken in the framework of creation of particles. To accommodate the creation of new particles, the universe is regarded as an Open thermodynamical system. The energy conservation equation is modified with the incorporation of a creation pressure in the energy momentum tensor. Exact solutions of the field equations are obtained (i) for a particular choice of the particle creation function and (ii) by considering the deceleration parameter to be constant. In the first model the behavior of the solution at late times is investigated. The physical aspects of the model have also been discussed. In the case of the second model we have restricted our analysis to the power law behaviour for the average scale factor. This leads to a particular form for the particle creation function. The behavior of the solution is investigated and the physical aspects of the model have also been discussed for the matter dominated era.

In this work, we focus on the gravitationally influenced adiabatic particle creation process, a mechanism that does not need any dark energy or modified gravity models to explain the current accelerating phase of the universe. Introducing some particle creation models that generalize some previous models in the literature, we constrain the cosmological scenarios using the latest compilation of the Type Ia Supernovae data only, the first indicator of the accelerating universe. Aside from the observational constraints on the models, we examine the models using two model independent diagnoses, namely the cosmography and [Formula: see text]. Further, we establish the general conditions to test the thermodynamic viabilities of any particle creation model. Our analysis shows that at late-time, the models have close resemblance to that of the [Formula: see text]CDM cosmology, and the models always satisfy the generalized second law of thermodynamics under certain conditions.

AbstractThe entropy production rate is a key quantity in nonequilibrium thermodynamics of both classical and quantum processes. No universal theory of entropy production is available to date, which hinders progress toward its full grasping. By using a phase space-based approach, here we take the current framework for the assessment of thermodynamic irreversibility all the way to quantum regimes by characterizing entropy production—and its rate—resulting from the continuous monitoring of a Gaussian system. This allows us to formulate a sharpened second law of thermodynamics that accounts for the measurement back action and information gain from a continuously monitored system. We illustrate our framework in a series of physically relevant examples.
