The cornerstone of finite‐time thermodynamics is all about the price of haste and how to
minimize it. Reversible processes may be ultimately efficient, but they are unrealistically …

On the basis of introducing the origin and development of finite time thermodynamics (FTT),
this paper reviews the progress in FTT optimization for internal combustion engine (ICE) …

Combining the finite piston speed thermodynamics and finite time thermodynamics and
considering the irreversible losses caused by heat transfer, friction, finite piston speed and …

Applying finite-time thermodynamics and air standard assumption, the irreversible Diesel
cycle model is established with friction loss, heat transfer loss and internal irreversibility loss …

In this paper, an elaborate investigation for a hybrid system based on solid oxide fuel cell
(SOFC) and supercritical CO 2 (SCO 2) Brayton cycle is implemented to enrich the …

By connecting the finite time thermodynamics and the finite speed thermodynamics, an
irreversible reciprocating Diesel cycle model is established with considering the …
