About

This is a personal technical blog focused on the fundamentals of thermodynamics and the analysis of thermal systems and their controls.

The goal of the site is to explore how physical principles, mathematical models, and control concepts shape real engineering decisions, especially in heating, cooling, and refrigeration systems. Posts range from conceptual discussions and first-principles derivations to simplified models that illuminate design trade-offs, limits, and failure modes.

This blog is written for engineers, researchers, and technically curious readers who already have some familiarity with HVAC, energy systems, or applied thermodynamics, but who enjoy slowing down and looking carefully at the structure of the problems.
