An Endoreversible Thermodynamic Model Applied to the Convective Zone of the Sun

Table 1

Maximum power regime case: First column shows the normalized radial position of the hot layers corresponding to the sixteen virtual convective cells. The following columns give, respectively, second, the cellโ€™s widths; third, the hot isotherms; fourth, the cold isotherms; fifth, the average power output; sixth, thermal efficiency.
