The Laws of Thermodynamics are the foundation of heat transfer and energy work. When any engineer is designing or implementing a system, the consideration of heat loss or energy produced is influenced ...

Arguably, almost all truly intriguing systems are ones that are far away from equilibrium -- such as stars, planetary atmospheres, and even digital circuits. But, until now, systems far from thermal ...

The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two bodies are each in thermal equilibrium with a third body, they are also in equilibrium with each other. When you purchase through links on our site, ...

Quantum thermodynamics has emerged as an innovative field that integrates the principles of quantum mechanics with classical thermodynamic concepts to describe systems beyond equilibrium. Central to ...

What do we do now?

High performance materials for gas storage, thermal insulators or nanomachines need a thorough understanding of the behavior of the material down to the molecular level. Thermodynamics, which have ...

Recent advances have significantly deepened our understanding of how systems evolve when driven far from equilibrium. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics examines energy flows, dissipation and entropy ...

At this event, we will be giving two awards: the Ruth Lynden-Bell prize for best PhD thesis to Dr Emanuele Penocchio. the Early Career prize to Dr Sarah Loos. This "Non-equilibrium thermodynamics” ...

In Chemistry, the chapters students often fear the most usually turn out to be the most scoring ones. Thermodynamics and Ionic Equilibrium fall exactly in this category. Both have limited formulas, ...
