Obtaining efficient thermal engines from interacting Brownian particles under time-periodic drivings
Obtaining efficient thermal engines from interacting Brownian particles under time-periodic drivings
We introduce an alternative route for obtaining reliable cyclic engines, based on two interacting Brownian particles under time-periodic drivings which can be used as a work-to-work converter or a heat engine. Exact expressions for the thermodynamic fluxes, such as power and heat, are obtained using the framework of stochastic thermodynamic. …
