In a recent study published in Nature Physics, ICFO researchers Ignacio Martínez, Édgar Roldán, the late Dmitri Petrov and Raúl Rica, in collaboration with the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, have ...
A study published in Physical Review Letters (PRL) details a "Gambling Carnot Engine" that researchers report can attain 100% efficiency while also improving power generation. The researchers present ...
Carnot has entered a strategic partnership with Petredec, a global leader in the LPG industry, to accelerate the deployment of Carnot’s next-generation engines, using LPG fuels, across the transport, ...
Thermoelectrics using nanostructures offers the potential of getting very close to the carnot limit of efficiency using very light weight systems for convert heat to electricity. Early versions of ...
One famous limit of thermodynamics is that heat engines, like steam engines and internal combustion engines, must be less efficient than a Carnot heat engine (a heat engine cycle designed by French ...
Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) has set out plans to invest in Carnot, a start-up company that develops technology for highly efficient engines using heat-resistant materials. Carnot is technology start-up ...
Engineers have reported on the development of a microscopic motor operating between two thermal baths, that is, a micro Carnot engine. In a recent study published in Nature Physics, ICFO researchers ...
