A technique for calculating the efficiency and power of Stirling machines is presented. This
technique is based on the First Law of Thermodynamics for processes with finite speed and …

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of pressure losses and actual heat
transfer on the performance of a solar Stirling engine. The model presented includes the …

The objective of this paper is to develop a methodology to determine how many houses
could be fueled from the solar energy captured by a number of solar Stirling modules (with a …

An irreversible Carnot cycle engine operating as a closed system is modeled using the
Direct Method and the First Law of Thermodynamics for processes with Finite Speed …

One of the aims of this work is the study of the geometry of a micro‐cogenerator using a
Stirling engine with four double effect pistons. The complex geometry of the heat exchangers …

An irreversible Carnot refrigeration and heat pump cycle model with external irreversibilities
caused by finite rate of heat transfer, heat leakage from heat sink to heat source and internal …

The paper proposes an extension of Thermodynamics with Finite Speed (TFS) to Biological
Systems, with Cardio-Pulmonary System study as the first objective. It is an extremely …

Illness and aging are irreversible processes, which inevitably affects us all. The answers to
the questions how, why, and how much irreversible are the cardio-respiratory system …

As part of the authors' work to extend Thermodynamics with Finite Speed to the study of
Biological Systems, once discovered the Stationary Quantum States of the Human Cardio …

The proposed paper presents the results of systematic theoretical and experimental
research with the goal of applying and extending Thermodynamics with Finite Speed to the …
