Talk:Maximum empower

Re: original reserach

The "no original research" rule seems to rule out further clarification of the empower concept in the main article, as well as the concepts of emergy and transformity, and Emergy Synthesis. I have therefore moved the following to the discussion in order to seek greater clarification here, which can be transferred to the main article later upon approval.

"H.T.Odum suggested the maximum empower principle as a corrolary of the principle of maximum power. The principle of maximum power refers to the maximum rate of useful energy transformation. This seems to imply, therefore, that maximum empower refers to the maximum rate of useful emergy transformation. But this beggs the question, "what is useful emergy"?"

a dimensional analysis of emergy and empower to concretise the concept further for the purposes of this entry would be helpful. Any additional help is welcome! :) Sholto Maud 22:50, 30 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge I've suggested that this be merged with the emergy article, because it would seem to aid continuity. Sholto Maud 03:54, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
