Quantum Thermodynamic Cycles and quantum heat engines [PDF]
, 2006 In order to describe quantum heat engines, here we systematically study isothermal and isochoric processes for quantum thermodynamic cycles. Based on these results the quantum versions of both the Carnot heat engine and the Otto heat engine are defined ...

An Available Method Utilizing the Waste Heat in a Direct Carbon Fuel Cell
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2014 A new hybrid system is established to utilize the waste heat generated in a DCFC (direct carbon fuel cell). The hybrid system mainly consists of a DCFC with molten carbonate as electrolyte, a regenerator and a Carnot heat engine, where the Carnot heat ...
