Abstract
To investigate the impact of fractional parameter on the thermodynamic behaviors of quantum systems, we incorporate fractional quantum mechanics into the cycle of a quantum Stirling heat engine and examine the influence of fractional parameter on the regeneration and efficiency. We propose a novel approach to control the thermodynamic cycle that leverages the fractional parameter structure and evaluates its effectiveness. Our findings reveal that by tuning the fractional parameter, the region of the cycle with the perfect regeneration and the Carnot efficiency can be expanded.
