Linear irreversible thermodynamics and Onsager reciprocity for information-driven engines
Linear irreversible thermodynamics and Onsager reciprocity for information-driven engines
In the recent progress in nonequilibrium thermodynamics, information has been recognized as a kind of thermodynamic resource that can drive thermodynamic current without any direct energy injection. In this paper, we establish the framework of linear irreversible thermodynamics for a broad class of autonomous information processing. In particular, we prove …
