Optimal Thermodynamic Processes For Gases

Abstract: In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem in equilibrium thermodynamics of gases. Thermodynamic state of the gas is given by a Legendrian submanifold in a contact thermodynamic space. Using Pontryagin's maximum principle we find a thermodynamic process on this submanifold such that the gas maximizes the work functional. For ideal gases, this problem is shown to be integrable in Liouville's sense and its solution is given by means of action-angle variables. For real gases considered as a perturbatio… Show more

“…Note that this curve is of the similar form as that separating domains where and . This means that we get a more accurate applicability condition for van der Waals model, and it may be a considerable contribution to the theory of phase transitions, since, as we know, it is the sign changing of that forces the first order phase transitions in van der Waals model [ 4 , 5 , 7 ].…”
