Strong Violation of the Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relation in a Minimal Autonomous Heat Engine

Enrique P. Cital, Viktor Holubec

Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) impose a universal trade-off between current precision and entropy production in autonomous steady states, constraining in particular the…

Inertia Tames Fluctuations in Autonomous Stationary Heat Engines

Enrique P. Cital, Viktor Holubec

Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) provide fundamental constraints on the interplay between power fluctuations, entropy production, and efficiency in overdamped stationary…

Optimizing low-dissipation Carnot-like thermal devices with heat leak

Zhuolin Ye, Viktor Holubec

Delimiting the bounds of optimal performance for heat engines (HEs), refrigerators (REs), and heat pumps (HPs) is a central goal in thermodynamics. While low-dissipation (LD) model…

Optimal constrained control for generally damped Brownian heat engines

Monojit Chatterjee, Viktor Holubec, Rahul Marathe

Optimization of cyclic stochastic heat engines, a topic spanning decades of research, commonly assumes fixed control or response parameters at discrete points in the cycle-a limita…

Thermodynamics and optimal protocols of multidimensional quadratic Brownian systems

Paolo Abiuso, Viktor Holubec, Janet Anders +3

We characterize finite-time thermodynamic processes of multidimensional quadratic overdamped systems. Analytic expressions are provided for heat, work, and dissipation for any evol…

Optimal finite-time heat engines under constrained control

Zhuolin Ye, Federico Cerisola, Paolo Abiuso +3

We optimize finite-time stochastic heat engines with a periodically scaled Hamiltonian under experimentally motivated constraints on the bath temperature and the scaling parame…
