A quantum Otto engine with finite heat baths: energy, correlations, and degradation
, 2018 We study a driven harmonic oscillator operating an Otto cycle between two thermal baths of finite size. By making extensive use of the tools of Gaussian quantum mechanics, we directly simulate the dynamics of the engine as a whole, without the need to ...

Potential of carnot batteries for load shifting of PV-production
, 2021 The share of renewable energy sources in our energy supply is ever increasing. Due to the intermittency of these renewable sources, large-scale electrical energy storage is needed to match supply and demand. Carnot batteries are a novel storage concept that could potentially fulfil this role. The needed system size for load-shifting of renewable energy
