An integrated thermodynamic system for enhancing the energy efficiency and operating lifetime by reducing wear of moving parts is provided. The system provides automated means to attract or repel electrically conductive or magnetic lubricants in a dynamic manner. The system, when utilizing advanced lubricants including ionic liquids, poly(ionic) liquids, electrorheological fluids, or expanded fluid; and a control system implementing dynamic algorithms, preferably meets the complex demands of thermodynamic systems, particularly high speed rotating equipment, for obtaining high efficiency that requires low friction and long lifetimes that requires superior wear resistance.
