Abstract:This study employed entropy-based second law post-processing analysis to characterize the various thermodynamic losses inside a 3-space solution domain (gas spring + heat exchanger + regenerator) operating under conditions of oscillating pressure and oscillating flow. The 3-space solution domain is adapted from the 2-space solution domain (gas spring + heat exchanger) in Kornhauser's MIT test rig by modifying the heat exchanger space to include a porous regenerator system. A thermal non-equilibrium model which… Show more
