EntropyHunter v0.4 — Exergy Analysis Specialist (8B, GGUF)

A fine-tuned Qwen3-8B model specialized in second-law thermodynamic (exergy) analysis of industrial equipment. Trained on 1,235 expert-generated examples covering 6 analysis families across 7 equipment types.

Benchmark Results — v0.4 (March 2026)

92.7% adjusted accuracy (Grade A-) on 40-test × 3-run benchmark suite (120 total inferences, temperature 0.7).

Note: Raw score is 76.7% because the benchmark includes a json_block check (structured JSON output) which is a known limitation at the 8B parameter scale — no 8B model can produce valid structured JSON for complex thermodynamic analysis. The adjusted score excludes this single check.

What It Does

EntropyHunter performs detailed exergy analysis with step-by-step calculations for industrial equipment:

6 Analysis Families:

1. Basic Exergy Analysis — Exergy destruction, efficiency, waste stream identification
2. Exergoeconomic Analysis (SPECO) — CRF, cost rates, exergoeconomic factor
3. Entropy Generation Minimization — S_gen decomposition, Bejan number, thermodynamic grade
4. What-if Comparison — Baseline vs scenario with delta analysis and annual savings
5. Avoidable/Unavoidable Decomposition — Tsatsaronis method, improvement potential
6. Hotspot Detection — Multi-equipment ranking by exergy destruction

7 Equipment Types: Compressors, boilers, heat exchangers, pumps, steam turbines, chillers, dryers

Key capabilities:

• Always references dead state (T₀ = 298.15 K, P₀ = 101.325 kPa)
• Step-by-step calculation chains with physical validation
• Catches thermodynamic inconsistencies (e.g., negative exergy destruction)
• Provides actionable engineering recommendations

Quality Control

Training data passes 8 thermodynamic validation checks:

1. Energy balance: |Ex_in − Ex_out − Ex_waste − Ex_d| ≤ 2% of Ex_in
2. Efficiency range: 0.1% < η_ex < 99.9%
3. Second law compliance: Ex_destroyed ≥ 0
4. Gouy-Stodola consistency: |T₀ × S_gen − Ex_d| ≤ 2%
5. Bejan number validity: 0 ≤ N_s ≤ 1
6. f-factor validity: 0 ≤ f ≤ 1
7. Dead state reference: T₀ = 298.15 K appears in analysis
8. AV/UN split: Avoidable + unavoidable = total Ex_destroyed

Known Limitations

• No structured JSON output — 8B models cannot reliably produce valid JSON for complex analyses
• Arithmetic variance — Same problem may yield slightly different numerical results across runs (inherent to autoregressive generation)
• mechanism_values — Entropy generation decomposition into individual kW/K values remains weak (~5% pass rate)
• Steam table lookup — Model approximates rather than exactly reproducing tabulated values

Hardware Requirements

Tested on: NVIDIA L4 24GB (GCE), NVIDIA A40 48GB (RunPod), Apple M-series (CPU).

About

Built by Kemal Düzkar at Olivenet (KKTC). EntropyHunter is part of a larger vision: combining IoT sensing with deep second-law thermodynamic analysis to help industrial facilities find and eliminate exergy destruction — the hidden inefficiencies that first-law analysis misses.

ExergyLab (36,000+ lines, 7 analysis engines) provides the domain foundation. EntropyHunter packages that expertise into an edge-deployable AI model.
