The windmill operator and its implications in confined fluid dynamics

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

The concept of available work is expressed in the formalism of fluid dynamics by two local nonlinear differential operators: the Carnot operator and the windmill operator.

Riassunto

Il concetto di lavoro massimo è espresso nel formalismo della fluidodinamica mediante due operatori differenziali locali non lineari: l’operatore di Carnot e l’operatore del mulino.

Резюме

Концепция работы выражается в формализеме гидродинамики с помощъю двух локалъных нелинейных дифференциальных орераторов: оператор Карно и оператора Виндмилла.
