Geometric Modeling for Control of Thermodynamic Systems

Authors

Abstract

This paper discusses the way that energy and entropy can be regarded as storage functions with respect to supply rates corresponding to the power and thermal ports of the thermodynamic system. Then, this research demonstrates how the factorization of the irreversible entropy production leads to quasi-Hamiltonian formulations, and how this can be used for stability analysis. The Liouville geometry approach to contact geometry is summarized, and how this leads to the definition of port-thermodynamic systems is discussed. This notion is utilized for control by interconnection of thermodynamic systems.
