Entropy production and heat transport in harmonic chains under time-dependent periodic drivings
Entropy production and heat transport in harmonic chains under time-dependent periodic drivings
Using stochastic thermodynamics, the properties of interacting linear chains subject to periodic drivings are investigated. The systems are described by Fokker-Planck-Kramers equation and exact (explicit) solutions are obtained for periodic drivings as functions of the modulation frequency and strength constants. The limit of long chains is analyzed by means of …
