THE working of exercises forms a very important part of the course work of an engineering student. Many of the exercises required for the purpose of elucidating the subject of heat and heat engines ...
Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...
Quantum thermodynamics explores the fundamental principles governing energy conversion at the smallest scales, where quantum effects such as coherence and entanglement significantly influence the ...
“We’ve developed the world’s smallest steam engine, or to be more precise the smallest Stirling engine, and found that the machine really does perform work,” said Clemens Bechinger, a physicist at the ...

Chinese scientists crack code for heat engines with max power and efficiency
A recent study led by Chinese scientists has challenged the hundreds-of-year-old myth that a heat engine can achieve both ...
MIT says its new solid-state thermophotovoltaic heat engine can harvest more energy from heat than the average steam turbine, at a fraction of the cost and using no moving parts. Huge implications for ...
