The pearlite in a context of dissipative structures

Abstract

It is well established that non-equilibrium states may be a source of order in the sense that they result in irreversible processes leading to a new type of dynamic state of matter with structures called dissipative structures. The aim of calculations of the accumulated negentropy production, net entropy production and synergetic efficiency, presented in this article, is to show that by inspecting the value of the synergetic efficiency, defined by the author in a new way, one can predict the existence or lack thereof a tendency to form a dissipative structure in a physical open system. The results presented in this article were obtained for the temperature 996 K. A new theoretical approach proposed may be used to enhance the effectiveness of technological processes applied to obtain materials of new generation.
