We consider a situation where an $N$-level system (NLS) is coupled successively to two heat baths with different temperatures without being necessarily thermalized and approaches a steady state. For this situation we apply a general…

We give a thermodynamically consistent description of simultaneous heat and particle transport, as well as of the associated cross-effects, in the framework of a chaotic dynamical system, a generalized multibaker map. Besides the density, a…
When the process of a system in contact with a heat bath is described by classical Langevin equation, the method of stochastic energetics [K. Sekimoto, J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. vol. 66 (1997) p.1234] enables to derive the form of Helmholtz free…
