In this paper we revisit the thermocouple model, as a linear irreversible thermodynamic energy converter. As is well known, the linear model of the thermocuple is one of the classics in this branch. In this model we note two types of phenomenological coefficients: the first comes from some microscopic models, such as the coefficient associated with the electric conductivity, and the second comes from experimental facts such as the coefficient associated with the thermoelectric power. We show that in the last case, these coefficients can be related to the operation modes of the converter. These relationships allow us to propose a generalization of the first and second Thomsons relations. For this purpose we develop the ideas of non-isothermal linear converters, operated directly (heat engine) and indirect (refrigerator). In addition to this development we analyze the energy described by these converters.

Thomsons multitaper method estimates the power spectrum of a signal from $N$ equally spaced samples by averaging $K$ tapered periodograms. Discrete prolate spheroidal sequences (DPSS) are used as tapers since they provide excellent protection against
spectral leakage. Thomsons multitaper method is widely used in applications, but most of the existing theory is qualitative or asymptotic. Furthermore, many practitioners use a DPSS bandwidth $W$ and number of tapers that are smaller than what the theory suggests is optimal because the computational requirements increase with the number of tapers. We revisit Thomsons multitaper method from a linear algebra perspective involving subspace projections. This provides additional insight and helps us establish nonasymptotic bounds on some statistical properties of the multitaper spectral estimate, which are similar to existing asymptotic results. We show using $K=2NW-O(log(NW))$ tapers instead of the traditional $2NW-O(1)$ tapers better protects against spectral leakage, especially when the power spectrum has a high dynamic range. Our perspective also allows us to derive an $epsilon$-approximation to the multitaper spectral estimate which can be evaluated on a grid of frequencies using $O(log(NW)logtfrac{1}{epsilon})$ FFTs instead of $K=O(NW)$ FFTs. This is useful in problems where many samples are taken, and thus, using many tapers is desirable.
Electrical circuits with transient elements can be good examples of systems where non--steady irreversible processes occur, so in the same way as a steady state energy converter, we use the formal construction of the first order irreversible thermody
namic (FOIT) to describe the energetics of these circuits. In this case, we propose an isothermic model of two meshes with transient and passive elements, besides containing two voltage sources (which can be functions of time); this is a non--steady energy converter model. Through the Kirchhoff equations, we can write the circuit phenomenological equations. Then, we apply an integral transformation to linearise the dynamic equations and rewrite them in algebraic form, but in the frequency space. However, the same symmetry for steady states appears (cross effects). Thus, we can study the energetic performance of this converter model by means of two parameters: the force ratio and the coupling degre. Furthermore, it is possible to obtain the characteristic functions (dissipation function, power output, efficiency, etc.). They allow us to establish a simple optimal operation regime of this energy converter. As an example, we obtain the converter behavior for the maximum efficient power regime (MPE).
In a series of recent papers anomalous Hall and Nernst effects have been theoretically discussed in the non-linear regime and have seen some early success in experiments. In this paper, by utilizing the role of Berry curvature dipole, we derive the f
undamental mathematical relations between the anomalous electric and thermoelectric transport coefficients in the non-linear regime. The formulae we derive replace the celebrated Wiedemann-Franz law and Mott relation of anomalous thermoelectric transport coefficients defined in the linear response regime. In addition to fundamental and testable new formulae, an important byproduct of this work is the prediction of nonlinear anomalous thermal Hall effect which can be observed in experiments.
We derive analogues of the Jarzynski equality and Crooks relation to characterise the nonequilibrium work associated with changes in the spring constant of an overdamped oscillator in a quadratically varying spatial temperature profile. The stationar
y state of such an oscillator is described by Tsallis statistics, and the work relations for certain processes may be expressed in terms of q-exponentials. We suggest that these identities might be a feature of nonequilibrium processes in circumstances where Tsallis distributions are found.
The fluctuation relations have received considerable attention since their emergence and development in the 1990s. We present a summary of the main results and suggest ways to interpret this material. Starting with a consideration of the under-determ
ined time evolution of a simple open system, formulated using continuous Markovian stochastic dy- namics, an expression for the entropy generated over a time interval is developed in terms of the probability of observing a trajectory associated with a prescribed driving protocol, and the probability of its time-reverse. This forms the basis for a general theoretical description of non-equilibrium thermodynamic pro- cesses. Having established a connection between entropy production and an inequivalence in probability for forward and time-reversed events, we proceed in the manner of Sekimoto and Seifert, in particular, to derive results in stochastic thermodynamics: a description of the evolution of a system between equilibrium states that ties in with well-established thermodynamic expectations. We derive fluctuation relations, state conditions for their validity, and illustrate their op- eration in some simple cases, thereby providing some introductory insight into the various celebrated symmetry relations that have emerged in this field.
