Abstract

In this paper we suggest a class of quasi-port-Hamiltonian systems called Irreversible port-Hamiltonian Systems, that expresses simultaneously the first and second principle of thermodynamics as a structural property. These quasi-port-Hamiltonian systems are defined with respect to a structure matrix and a modulating function which depends on the thermodynamic relation between state and co-state variables of the system. This modulating function itself is the product of some positive function γ and the Poisson bracket of the entropy and the energy function. This construction guarantees that the Hamiltonian function is a conserved quantity and simultaneously that the entropy function satisfies a balance equation containing an irreversible entropy creation term. In the second part of the paper, we suggest a lift of the Irreversible Port-Hamiltonian Systems to control contact systems defined on the Thermodynamic Phase Space which is canonically endowed with a contact structure associated with Gibbs’ relation. For this class of systems we have suggested a lift which avoids any singularity of the contact Hamiltonian function and defines a control contact system on the complete Thermodynamic Phase Space, in contrast to the previously suggested lifts of such systems. Finally we derive the formulation of the balance equations of a CSTR model as an Irreversible Port-Hamiltonian System and give two alternative lifts of the CSTR model to a control contact system defined on the complete Thermodynamic Phase Space.
