Thermal Efficiency Index (η_T)

THERMO-NET introduces the first physics-informed AI framework for quantitative characterization and suppression of irreversible entropy production in high-entropy physical systems — the Thermal Efficiency Index (η_T). Built on three mathematically rigorous constructs spanning Neural Heat Transport Operator, Local Entropy Production Minimizer, and Thermo-Informational Coupling Tensor.

The Three THERMO-NET Constructs

NHTO

Neural Heat Transport Operator · Adaptive Thermal Conductivity

τ_θ(r,t)·∂q/∂t + q(r,t) = -κ(r,t,θ)·∇T(r,t) + F_AI(r,T,∇T,θ) — Non-Fourier heat transport with SIREN-4L/6L architecture

LEPM

Local Entropy Production Minimizer · Second Law Constraint

σ(r,t) = q·∇(1/T) + Σᵢ Jᵢ·∇(-μᵢ/T) + Π_visc/T + σ_Landauer(r,t) — Model-predictive dissipation control with 200 μs horizon

TICT

Thermo-Informational Coupling Tensor · Landauer Erasure

Φ_ij(r,t) = k_B·T·(∂S_info/∂ϕ_i)·(∂σ_Landauer/∂ϕ_j) + Σ_ext_ij(r,t) — Hermitian PSD matrix bridging info and thermal entropy

Thermal Efficiency Index (η_T) Formula

η_T = η_Carnot - σ_integrated / η_Carnot ∈ [0, 1]

            η_Carnot = 1 - T_cold / T_hot

            σ_integrated: ∫ σ(r,t) dr dt (total entropy production)

            Hard constraint: σ ≥ 0 (Second Law of Thermodynamics)

Python Interface

            
from thermo_net import ThermalStateTracker

from thermo_net.environments import CMOSNodeEnvironment

tracker = ThermalStateTracker(

    spatial_dim=128,

    lstm_hidden=256,

    material='Si'

)

env = CMOSNodeEnvironment(

    process_node_nm=1.8,

    temperature_k=300.0

)

result = tracker.predict(environment=env)

print(f"η_T = {result.eta:.4f} [{result.status}]")

Physics-Informed Neural Network + Neural ODE

            
# PINN penalty layer constraints (from paper)

# • Second Law compliance: σ(r,t) ≥ 0 everywhere

# • Energy conservation: integrated power input equals heat output

# • Landauer limit: k_B·T·ln(2) minimum per bit erasure

# Python implementation
