IN a paper on Carnot's Cycle and the Efficiency of Heat Engines, reported in NATURE, August 29, Dr. J. S. Haldane comes to the astonishing conclusion that “the Carnot cycle is radically in ...

And the conversion efficiency is ``how much heat added to the Carnot cycle is converted to rotational energy'', so it can be obtained by E / (Q H). As long as Q C exists, E will never be 1, i.e. 100%.

Engineers have reported on the development of a microscopic motor operating between two thermal baths, that is, a micro Carnot engine. In a recent study published in Nature Physics, ICFO ...

Based on the the heat pump-organic rankine cycle, scientists in Portugal have created six different models of Carnot batteries for stationary storage. They investigated 16 different combinations ...
