The constraint relation for efficiency and power is crucial to design optimal heat engines operating within finite time. We find a universal constraint between efficiency and output power for heat engines operating in the low-dissipation regime. Such constraint is validated with an example of Carnot-like engine. Its microscopic dynamics is governed by the master equation. Based on the master equation, we connect the microscopic coupling strengths to the generic parameters in the phenomenological model. We find the usual assumption of low-dissipation is achieved when the coupling to thermal environments is stronger than the driving speed. Additionally, such connection allows the design of practical cycle to optimize the engine performance.

We derive the probability distribution of the efficiency of a quantum Otto engine. We explicitly compute the quantum efficiency statistics for an analytically solvable two-level engine. We analyze the occurrence of values of the stochastic efficiency
above unity, in particular at infinity, in the nonadiabatic regime and further determine mean and variance in the case of adiabatic driving. We finally investigate the classical-to-quantum transition as the temperature is lowered.
The thermodynamic properties of quantum heat engines are stochastic owing to the presence of thermal and quantum fluctuations. We here experimentally investigate the efficiency and nonequilibrium entropy production statistics of a spin-1/2 quantum Ot
to cycle. We first study the correlations between work and heat within a cycle by extracting their joint distribution for different driving times. We show that near perfect anticorrelation, corresponding to the tight-coupling condition, can be achieved. In this limit, the reconstructed efficiency distribution is peaked at the macroscopic efficiency and fluctuations are strongly suppressed. We further test the second law in the form of a joint fluctuation relation for work and heat. Our results characterize the statistical features of a small-scale thermal machine in the quantum domain and provide means to control them.
The physical aspects - mechanics and thermodynamics - of operation of martensite rotor heat engine (MRHE) on the basis of martensite-austenite structural phase transition with the transition temperature in the region of low-potential water temperatur
es have been studied. The engine converts the thermal energy of low-potential water into the elastic energy of working body (spring, ribbon or wire) made of the material with shape memory effect. At some simplifying assumptions, the analytical expressions are obtained for the thermal efficiency and the power of MRHE of different type. The registration of head hydraulic resistance and heat conductivity of working body material is made and the maximum value of power produced by the engine at the given mechanical and heat conditions is calculated. The recommendations are given on the optimal choice of engine parameters. On the basis of numerical estimations for nitinol, the possibility of application of MRHE is shown for efficient and ecologically pure production of electric energy both on local (geothermal waters, waste water of industrial enterprises, etc.) and global (warm ocean stream) scales.
The efficiency at maximum power has been investigated extensively, yet the practical control scheme to achieve it remains elusive. We fill such gap with a stepwise Carnot-like cycle, which consists the discrete isothermal process (DIP) and adiabatic
process. With DIP, we validate the widely adopted assumption of mathscr{C}/t relation of the irreversible entropy generation S^{(mathrm{ir})}, and show the explicit dependence of the coefficient mathscr{C} on the fluctuation of the speed of tuning energy levels as well as the microscopic coupling constants to the heat baths. Such dependence allows to control the irreversible entropy generation by choosing specific control schemes. We further demonstrate the achievable efficiency at maximum power and the corresponding control scheme with the simple two-level system. Our current work opens new avenues for the experimental test, which was not feasible due to the lack the of the practical control scheme in the previous low-dissipation model or its equivalents.
The performances of quantum thermometry in thermal equilibrium together with the output power of certain class of quantum engines share a common characteristic: both are determined by the heat capacity of the probe or working medium. After noticing t
hat the heat capacity of spin ensembles can be significantly modified by collective coupling with a thermal bath, we build on the above observation to investigate the respective impact of such collective effect on quantum thermometry and quantum engines. We find that the precision of the temperature estimation is largely increased at high temperatures, reaching even the Heisenberg scaling - inversely proportional to the number of spins. For Otto engines operating close to the Carnot efficiency, collective coupling always enhances the output power. Some tangible experimental platforms are suggested.
