Non-Markov enhancement of maximum power for quantum thermal machines
Non-Markov enhancement of maximum power for quantum thermal machines
In this work we study how the non-Markovian character of the dynamics can affect the thermodynamic performance of a quantum thermal engine, by analysing the maximum power output of Carnot and Otto cycles departing from the quasi-static and infinite-time-thermalization regime respectively, introducing techniques for their control optimization in general dynamical …
