Title: | Efficiency of single-particle engines | Authors: | PROESMANS, Karel DRIESEN, Cedric CLEUREN, Bart VAN DEN BROECK, Christian |
Issue Date: | 2015 | Publisher: | AMER PHYSICAL SOC | Source: | PHYSICAL REVIEW E, 92 (3) | Abstract: | We study the efficiency of a single-particle Szilard and Carnot engine. Within a first order correction to the quasistatic limit, the work distribution is found to be Gaussian and the correction factor to average work and efficiency only depends on the piston speed. The stochastic efficiency is studied for both models and the recent findings on efficiency fluctuations are confirmed numerically. Special features are revealed in the zero-temperature limit. | Notes: | [Proesmans, Karel; Driesen, Cedric; Cleuren, Bart; Van den Broeck, Christian] Hasselt Univ, Fac Sci, B-3590 Diepenbeek, Belgium. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/19679 | ISSN: | 2470-0045 | e-ISSN: | 2470-0053 | DOI: | 10.1103/PhysRevE.92.032105 | ISI #: | 000360602800003 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2016 |
