In the strange, often unintuitive world of quantum physics, one mystery has stood out for decades: Can quantum entanglement be manipulated in a reversible way, like energy in a perfect heat engine?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a huge role in heat rate optimization. In some cases, AI-driven models have analyzed ...

The two-stroke engine is mostly a piece of history today, but there was a time when some of the coolest developments in engine technology were two-cycle engines. Here’s how two-stroke technology rose ...

The performance characteristics are obtained by numerical calculations. It is shown that due to the heat flow via the change of kinetic energy of the particles, the Brownian heat engine is always ...

In this paper he has “thrown to the winds” the usual academic teaching in regard to the efficiency of a Carnot cycle, and has put forward a claim that another cycle has a greater efficiency.

Carnot is developing engine technology that eliminates energy loss during the cooling process and dramatically increases thermal efficiency and fuel efficiency by using highly heat-resistant materials ...

He implicitly rejected of the idea of caloric; heat and work were for Carnot aspects of the same thing. Following Clément he dissected the process of an engine into a cycle involving four reversible ...

Bengaluru researchers overcome Carnot limit, age-old thermodynamic puzzle solved with novel micro heat engine Practical heat engines are limited to a theoretical efficiency called the Carnot limit ...

Bengaluru: Scientists in Bengaluru have done the impossible. They’ve made an engine that suffers almost no heat loss. It’s a tiny microscopic heat engine, but overcomes a major problem in ...

Tabletop experiments by Indian physicists have broken a barrier proposed 200 years ago by a legendary French engineer, Sadi Carnot, raising hopes of new high-efficiency heat engines hitherto ...
