Generalized Thermodynamic Optimization for Iron and Steel Production Processes: Theoretical Exploration and Application Cases

Combining modern thermodynamics theory branches, including finite time thermodynamics or entropy generation minimization, constructal theory and entransy theory, with metallurgical process engineering, this paper provides a new exploration on generalized thermodynamic optimization theory for iron an...
