6. Performance optimization

6.1 Finite-time thermodynamics (FTT) optimization of a standing-wave system

To simplify the presentation, we have chosen here the case of a closed half-wave thermoacoustic engine (standing wave) shown in figure . The hot and cold exchangers, imposing the thermal gradient of the stack, are supplied by fluids with respective thermal flows ${(\overset{•}{G} c)}_{H}$ and ${(\overset{•}{G} c)}_{C}$ ...
