Traveling-wave thermoacoustic refrigerator with curved and tapered surfaces to minimize streaming
Invention Disclosure, 2022 The present article describes a traveling-wave thermoacoustic refrigeration system driven by a thermoacoustic heat engine. The coupled engine-refrigerator system consists of a resonator tube, which the thermoacoustic engine and thermoacoustic ...

A single-atom heat engine [PDF]
Science, 2016 Making a teeny tiny engine Steam locomotives, cars, and the drinking bird toy all convert heat into useful work as it cycles between two reservoirs at different temperatures. Usually, the working substance where the heat-work conversion occurs is a liquid or a gas, consisting of many molecules. Roβnagel et al.

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 ...

Conical holographic heat engines [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2019 We demonstrate that adding a conical deficit to a black hole holographic heat engine increases its efficiency; in contrast, allowing a black hole to accelerate {\it decreases} efficiency if the same average conical deficit is maintained. Adding other charges to the black hole does not change this qualitative effect.

Quantum-dot heat engines with irreversible heat transfer
Physical Review Research, 2020 We study an endoreversible quantum heat engine in which the heat transfer between the baths is mediated by two qubits. Each qubit acts as an energy filter which allows for the conversion of heat into work.

Holographic heat engine within the framework of massive gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Heat engine models are constructed within the framework of massive gravity in this paper. For the four-dimensional charged black holes in massive gravity, it is shown that the existence of graviton mass improves the heat engine efficiency significantly ...

Algorithmic quantum heat engines [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2019 We suggest alternative quantum Otto engines, using heat bath algorithmic cooling with a partner pairing algorithm instead of isochoric cooling and using quantum swap operations instead of quantum adiabatic processes. Liquid state nuclear magnetic resonance systems in a single entropy sink are treated as working fluids.
