Entropy, Carnot Cycle, and Information Theory [PDF]

Entropy, 2018
The fundamental intuition that Carnot had in analyzing the operation of steam machines is that something remains constant during the reversible thermodynamic cycle. This invariant quantity was later named “entropy„ by Clausius.

The Carnot Cycle, Reversibility and Entropy [PDF]

Entropy, 2021
The Carnot cycle and the attendant notions of reversibility and entropy are examined. It is shown how the modern view of these concepts still corresponds to the ideas Clausius laid down in the nineteenth century.

Entropy, Carnot Cycle and Information Theory, Part 2 [PDF]

Entropy
This second part of this companion paper the Carnot cycle is analyzed trying to investigate the similarities and differences between a framework related to thermodynamics and one related to information theory. The parametric Schrodinger equations are the

Economic Cycles of Carnot Type [PDF]

Entropy, 2021
Originally, the Carnot cycle was a theoretical thermodynamic cycle that provided an upper limit on the efficiency that any classical thermodynamic engine can achieve during the conversion of heat into work, or conversely, the efficiency of a ...

Quantum signatures in the quantum Carnot cycle

New Journal of Physics, 2020
The Carnot cycle combines reversible isothermal and adiabatic strokes to obtain optimal efficiency, at the expense of a vanishing power output. Quantum Carnot-analog cycles are constructed and solved, operating irreversibly with positive power.

Action and Entropy in Heat Engines: An Action Revision of the Carnot Cycle [PDF]

Entropy, 2021
Despite the remarkable success of Carnot’s heat engine cycle in founding the discipline of thermodynamics two centuries ago, false viewpoints of his use of the caloric theory in the cycle linger, limiting his legacy.

Carnot Theorem Revisited: A Critical Perspective [PDF]

Entropy
After a brief review of Carnot’s everlasting contributions to the foundations of thermodynamics, we critically examine the consequences of the Carnot theorem, which leaves behind some lingering questions and confusion that persist even today. What is the
