Abstract :The present research aims at specializing Second Law analyses to characterize balances of properties, and efficiencies of processes, occurring in nuclear reactions. The conceptual schema is underpinned by the paradigm of microscopic few-particle systems and the inter-particle kinetic energy and binding potential energy determined by interactions among atomic nuclei and subatomic particles in non-equilibrium states along irreversible processes. The definition here proposed for thermodynamic entropy calculation is based on energy and exergy both being measurable properties used to directly derive entropy balances along elemental fission and fusion nuclear reactions in operating industrial plants.
Keywords : Nonequilibrium, first law, second law, generalized thermodynamic entropy, generalized exergy, fission nuclear reaction, fusion nuclear reaction
