In a quantum Stirling heat engine, the heat exchanged with two thermal baths is partly utilized for performing work by redistributing the energy levels of the working substance. We analyze the thermodynamics of a quantum Stirling engine…
We study the thermodynamic performance of the finite-time non-regenerative Stirling cycle used as a quantum heat engine. We consider specifically the case in which the working substance (WS) is a two-level system. The Stirling cycle is made…
We compute the efficiency of the reversible Stirling engine, with and without regeneration, for a broad class of working substances including Van der Waals fluids, quantum ideal gases (Bose and Fermi), Bose-Einstein condensates, thermal…
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…
We report on the study of student difficulties regarding heat engine in the context of Stirling cycle within upper-division undergraduate thermal physics course. An in-class test about a Stirling engine with a regenerator was taken by three…
We study a quantum Stirling cycle which extracts work using quantized energy levels of a potential well. The work and the efficiency of the engine depend on the length of the potential well, and the Carnot efficiency is approached in a low…
The quantum engine cycle serves as an analogous representation of the macroscopic nature of heat engines and the quantum regime of thermal devices composed of a single element. In this work, we follow the formalism of a quantum engine…
Enhancing the efficiency of quantum heat engines (QHEs) is crucial for advancing fundamental research and quantum technology.We here we explore a quantum Stirling cycle using a twoqubit quantum Rabi model with spin-spin coupling as a…
A long standing open problem whether a heat engine with finite power achieves the Carnot efficiency is investigated. We rigorously prove a general trade-off inequality on thermodynamic efficiency and time interval of a cyclic process with…
In this work we include, for the Carnot cycle, irreversibilities of linear finite rate of heat transferences between the heat engine and its reservoirs, heat leak between the reservoirs and internal dissipations of the working fluid. A…
A single driven spin is investigated as the working substance of a six-stroke irreversible quantum Carnot cycle. The role of inner friction associated with the finite-time adiabatic transformations on the cycle efficiency and the harvested…
We study the maximum efficiency of a Carnot cycle heat engine based on a small system. It is revealed that due to the finiteness of the system, irreversibility may arise when the working substance contacts with a heat bath. As a result,…
We investigate a quantum thermal machine composed of two qubits coupled through a Raman-induced exchange interaction and driven by inhomogeneous transition frequencies. The system is analyzed within Carnot, Otto, and Stirling thermodynamic…
We investigate, in an analytical fashion, quantum Carnot cycles of a microscopic heat engine coupled to two nite heat reservoirs, whose internal cycles could own higher e ciency than the standard Carnot limit without consuming extra quantum…
We present a general analytical framework for quasi-static quantum Stirling engines operating across ground-state level crossings (GLC). In the low-temperature regime, we derive the Primarch Formula, an exact universal expression linking…
We investigate the performance of a Stirling cycle with a working substance (WS) modeled as the quantum Rabi model (QRM), exploring the impact of criticality on its efficiency. Our findings indicate that the criticality of the QRM has a…
In this contribution, we investigate two coupled spins as a working substance of the quantum Stirling heat engine cycle. We propose an experimentally implementable scheme in which the cycle is driven by tuning the dipole-dipole interaction…
The efficiency of cyclic heat engines is limited by the Carnot bound. This bound follows from the second law of thermodynamics and is attained by engines that operate between two thermal baths under the reversibility condition whereby the…
In traditional thermodynamics the Carnot cycle yields the ideal performance bound of heat engines and refrigerators. We propose and analyze a minimal model of a heat machine that can play a similar role in quantum regimes. The minimal model…
The Carnot heat engine sets an upper bound on the efficiency of a heat engine. As an ideal, reversible engine, a single cycle must be performed in infinite time, and so the Carnot engine has zero power. However, there is nothing in…
