Efficiency at the maximum power of the power law dissipative Carnot-like Heat engines with non-adiabatic dissipation

TL;DR

This paper investigates the efficiency at maximum power of Carnot-like heat engines with non-adiabatic dissipation, finding that such dissipation does not alter the universal efficiency bounds established in previous models.

Contribution

It extends the analysis of Carnot-like engines by including non-adiabatic dissipation and shows that the universal efficiency bounds remain unaffected.

Findings

Non-adiabatic dissipation does not change the efficiency bounds.

Universal efficiency bounds are robust to non-adiabatic effects.

The efficiency at maximum power remains within known limits despite dissipation.

Abstract

We study the efficiency at maximum power of non-adiabatic dissipative (internally dissipative friction in finite time adiabatic processes) Carnot-like heat engines operate in finite time under the power law dissipation regime. We find that the non-adiabatic dissipation does not influence the universal minimum and maximum bounds on the efficiency at maximum power obtained in the generalized dissipative Carnot-like heat engines which does not take in to account the non-adiabatic dissipation.
