  2. Closed system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_system

    A closed system is a natural physical system that does not allow transfer of matter in or out of the system, although – in the contexts of physics, chemistry, engineering, etc. – the transfer of energy (e.g. as work or heat) is allowed.

  3. Thermodynamic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_system

    Rigid boundary – not allowing exchange of work: A mechanically isolated system; One example is fluid being compressed by a piston in a cylinder. Another example of a closed system is a bomb calorimeter, a type of constant-volume calorimeter used in measuring the heat of combustion of a particular reaction. Electrical energy travels across the ...

  4. Closed system (control theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_system_(control_theory)

    The terms closed system and open system have long been defined in the widely (and long before any sort of amplifier was invented) established subject of thermodynamics, in terms that have nothing to do with the concepts of feedback and feedforward. The terms 'feedforward' and 'feedback' arose first in the 1920s in the theory of amplifier design ...

  5. System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System

    A closed system exchanges energy, but not matter, with its environment; like a computer or the project Biosphere 2. An isolated system exchanges neither matter nor energy with its environment. A theoretical example of such a system is the Universe.

  6. Closed ecological system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_ecological_system

    In a closed ecological system, any waste products produced by one species must be used by at least one other species. If the purpose is to maintain a life form, such as a mouse or a human , waste products such as carbon dioxide , feces and urine must eventually be converted into oxygen , food , and water .

  7. Isolated system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated_system

    Properties of Isolated, closed, and open systems in exchanging energy and matter. In physical science, an isolated system is either of the following: a physical system so far removed from other systems that it does not interact with them. a thermodynamic system enclosed by rigid immovable walls through which neither mass nor energy can pass.

  8. First law of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_law_of_thermodynamics

    The history of statements of the law for closed systems has two main periods, before and after the work of George H. Bryan (1907), [35] of Carathéodory (1909), [27] and the approval of Carathéodory's work given by Born (1921). [26] The earlier traditional versions of the law for closed systems are nowadays often considered to be out of date.

  9. Closed-loop controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_controller

    Example of a single industrial control loop; showing continuously modulated control of process flow. A closed-loop controller or feedback controller is a control loop which incorporates feedback, in contrast to an open-loop controller or non-feedback controller. A closed-loop controller uses feedback to control states or outputs of a dynamical ...
