Discussions about the Thermodynamic Entropy Property and its Existence in Vehicle Dynamics of Automobiles for Improving the Mileage

The recent vehicle management systems have been developing to improve the quality of the combustion process and transmission systems. In thermodynamic approach, the water molecule can exists in different phases like ice, water, wet steam, dry steam, and superheated steam. The phase change occurs in the steam formation process can be compared to the various stages of any vehicle dynamic system such starting, idling, normal speed, high speed and very high speed. There may be an identical value in the increment of energy level in both steam formation process and any vehicle dynamic system. Thermodynamic approach always deals with system, surroundings, boundary and energy transformation across boundaries. Entropy is a very good property which is used to find the energy degradation in a particular system, and this property existence in the vehicle dynamics of automobiles will be used to improve the efficiency of the control module of a vehicle management system. This paper initiates a new angle research in the field of vehicle dynamics to study and investigate the kinetic energy transformation and distance moved by the vehicle thermodynamically. From this paper, Entropy is found as a very good property for increasing the mileage of the vehicle. In the vehicle health monitoring, there should be an entropy measurement to reduce the unavailability of energy as it is the measure of the distance travelled by the vehicle per unit energy supplied to the same vehicle at various operating speeds. In manual transmission method, it has been found that driver is not able to press the accelerator pedal continuously due to body strain. Driver has to run the vehicle at constant speed by pressing the accelerator pedal continuously. In automatic transmission, the data required for the ECU module is given by the thermodynamic relations such as enthalpy, entropy and internal energy. This paper aims thermodynamically to describe the speed, acceleration, fuel consumption, kinetic energy and various resistances offered to the vehicles. Generally, Thermodynamic system deals with heat and mass transfer, likewise vehicle dynamics deals with work and vehicle’s motion.
