In the cancer cells, the entropy generation measures the irreversibility; so, the cancer cells have higher entropy generation than the healthy cells. The entropy generation rate shows the amount of robustness, progression, and invasion of the cancer cells. From a thermodynamic aspect, cancer's origin and growth is an irreversible process, and the thermodynamic variables such as the cell volume, temperature, and entropy will change during this process. In this paper, a procedure based on experimental data is proposed to calculate dynamic entropy generation in the tumoral tissues by dynamic thermography and measurement of tumor size. The dynamic changes in the volume, temperature, and entropy associated with tumor cells over time are tested and evaluated in this regard. An in vivo assay has been developed to measure and analyze these changes. This assay investigated the growth of 4T1 Breast Tumor in 55 BALB/c mice over time. Infrared thermography has been employed to evaluate dynamic temperature changes of the tumors. The computer code has been developed to gather important data from tumoral and healthy mice's images to compute considered temperature differences and entropy generation associated with tumoral tissues. To better evaluate tumor tissue, the Micro PET Images are used to verify volume changes of tumors. The relation between the volume and temperature gradient of tumor cells has detected by measuring during the experiment. The entropy of tumor cells was studying and calculating during the process of tumor changes. Results show that entropy generation as the main concept of thermodynamic is a strong tool for the analysis of cancer cells and has a strong relationship with cancer growth.","PeriodicalId":14438,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermodynamics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44929132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, multi-objective optimization of the systems has been considered to define the optimal conditions and the best cycle from various perspectives. In HRRC, heat recovery is used as a heat source for an organic Rankine cycle. The energy and exergy analysis results show that utilizing HRRC with both refrigerants increases the coefficient of performance (COP) and exergy efficiency. COP and exergy efficiency for HRRC-R744 have been obtained 2.82 and 30.7%, respectively. Due to the better thermodynamic performance of HRRC, other analyses have been performed on this cycle. Exergoeconomic analysis results show that using R744A leads to an increase in the total product cost. Total product cost with R744 and R744A have been calculated by 1.56 $/h and 1.96$/h, respectively. Additionally, to obtain the processes' environmental impact, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used. Exergoenvironmental analysis showed that using R744A increases the product environmental impact by 32%. Owning to the high amount of endogenous exergy destruction rate in the compressor and ejector compared to other equipment, they have more priority for improvement. Multi-objective optimization has been performed with exergy efficiency and total product cost objective functions as well as COP and product environmental impact for both refrigerants, which indicates that HRRC-R744 has better performance economically and environmentally. In optimal condition, the value of exergy efficiency, total product cost, COP, and the product environmental impact have been accounted for by 28.51%, 1.44 $/h, 2.76, and 149.01 mpts/h, respectively.","PeriodicalId":14438,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermodynamics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45864336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This means that thermodynamic inequalities are generated by attempts to take into account the irreversibility of real (non-static) processes, without taking into account explicitly its reasons - the inhomogeneity of the system and the presence of internal sources not only for entropy, but also for other parameters. On this basis, exact expressions of heat and work in open nonequilibrium systems, as well as their dissipative function, are obtained. The physical meaning of entropy as a thermal impulse and the unprovability of the principle of its increase in the framework of equilibrium systems are revealed. Non-entropy criteria for evolution are proposed and the latter is shown to be incompatible not only with the second law of thermodynamics, but also with the laws of conservation of energy carriers. The elimination of thermodynamic inequalities opens up the possibility of applying the equations of thermodynamics, taking into account energy dissipation, to other fundamental disciplines.","PeriodicalId":14438,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermodynamics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43710930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The heat conduction equation (HCE) of the region is described by time HC of fractional order with Caputo derivative form. The non-linear form of heat conduction equation is converted to linear form with Kirchhoff’s transformation. Integral transform technique is used to deal with the spatial variables and Laplace transform technique is used to deal with Caputo type time fractional derivative. Inverse Laplace transform and inverse finite Fourier transform are employed to expose the solution in the transformed domain. Numerical results are obtained for temperature distribution, deflection, stress resultants and thermal stress distribution for different values of time fractional order parameter. These results are presented graphically and discussed for various values of time fractional parameters. The obtained results show significant influence of the time fractional order derivative on the temperature as well as stress distribution. Thermosensitivity plays a vital role in the analysis of any real thermoelastic problems and one should consider their effect while dealing with materials in high temperature environment.","PeriodicalId":14438,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermodynamics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48828339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The coupled multi-physics evaluation included aspects related to the neutronic behavior such as fission induced energy deposition profile, medical isotopes production; and the thermal-hydraulic behavior such as temperature, velocities and gas volume fraction profiles. The methodology followed for the multi-physics and multi-scale coupling of the neutronic and thermal-hydraulic codes (MCNP + ANSYS-CFX), discussed in detail in this paper, represent one of the main outcomes of the current study. The methodology was tested for two different operating configurations of the ARGUS reactor, the original high-enriched uranium configuration used since 1981, and the new low-enriched uranium configuration after the conversion process during 2012-2014. The calculations carried out showed that the reactor, in the studied configuration, is able to produce 246.5 six days Curie of 99Mo in operation cycles of five days.
