Abstract

In this paper we propose an extension of port Hamiltonian systems, called conservative systems with ports, which encompass systems arising from the Irreversible Thermodynamics. Firstly we lift a port Hamiltonian system from its state space manifold to the thermodynamic phase space to a contact vector field with inputs and outputs. Secondly we define a more general class of contact vector field (called conservative system with ports) generated by a function corresponding to the power of a physical system and illustrate it on a simple example of irreversible system.

Keywords

conservative systems, contact forms, irreversible thermodynamics, port hamiltonian systems
