Holographic heat engines [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2014 It is shown that in theories of gravity where the cosmological constant is considered a thermodynamic variable, it is natural to use black holes as heat engines. Two examples are presented in detail using AdS charged black holes as the working substance.
