The common saying, that information is power, takes a rigorous form in stochastic thermodynamics, where a quantitative equivalence between the two helps explain the paradox of Maxwells demon in its ability to reduce entropy. In the present paper, we build on earlier work on the interplay between the relative cost and benefits of information in producing work in cyclic operation of thermodynamic engines (by Sandberg etal. 2014). Specifically, we study the general case of overdamped particles in a time-varying potential (control action) in feedback that utilizes continuous measurements (nonlinear filtering) of a thermodynamic ensemble, to produce suitable adaptations of the second law of thermodynamics that involve information.

We extend certain basic and general concepts of thermodynamics to discrete Markov systems exchanging work and heat with reservoirs. In this framework we show that the celebrated Clausius inequality can be generalized and becomes an equality, signific
antly extending several recent results. We further show that achieving zero dissipation in a system implies that detailed balance obtains, and as a consequence there is zero power production. We obtain inequalities for power production under more general circumstances and show that near equilibrium obtaining maximum power production requires dissipation to be of the same order of magnitude.
We study a class of cyclic Brownian heat engines in the framework of finite-time thermodynamics. For infinitely long cycle times, the engine works at the Carnot efficiency limit producing, however, zero power. For the efficiency at maximum power, we
find a universal expression, different from the endoreversible Curzon-Ahlborn efficiency. Our results are illustrated with a simple one-dimensional engine working in and with a time-dependent harmonic potential.
The aim of this paper is to determine lost works in a molecular engine and compare results with macro (classical) heat engines. Firstly, irreversible thermodynamics are reviewed for macro and molecular cycles. Secondly, irreversible thermodynamics ap
proaches are applied for a quantum heat engine with -1/2 spin system. Finally, lost works are determined for considered system and results show that macro and molecular heat engines obey same limitations. Moreover, a quantum thermodynamic approach is suggested in order to explain the results previously obtained from an atomic viewpoint.
In systems described by the scattering theory, there is an upper bound, lower than Carnot, on the efficiency of steady-state heat to work conversion at a given output power. We show that interacting systems can overcome such bound and saturate, in th
e thermodynamic limit, the much more favorable linear-response bound. This result is rooted in the possibility for interacting systems to achieve the Carnot efficiency at the thermodynamic limit without delta-energy filtering, so that large efficiencies can be obtained without greatly reducing power.
We present a unified perspective on nonequilibrium heat engines by generalizing nonlinear irreversible thermodynamics. For tight-coupling heat engines, a generic constitutive relation of nonlinear response accurate up to the quadratic order is derive
d from the symmetry argument and the stall condition. By applying this generic nonlinear constitutive relation to finite-time thermodynamics, we obtain the necessary and sufficient condition for the universality of efficiency at maximum power, which states that a tight-coupling heat engine takes the universal efficiency at maximum power up to the quadratic order if and only if either the engine symmetrically interacts with two heat reservoirs or the elementary thermal energy flowing through the engine matches the characteristic energy of the engine. As a result, we solve the following paradox: On the one hand, the universal quadratic term in the efficiency at maximum power for tight-coupling heat engines proved as a consequence of symmetry [M. Esposito, K. Lindenberg, and C. Van den Broeck, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 130602 (2009); S. Q. Sheng and Z. C. Tu, Phys. Rev. E 89, 012129 (2014)]; On the other hand, two typical heat engines including the Curzon-Ahlborn endoreversible heat engine [F. L. Curzon and B. Ahlborn, Am. J. Phys. 43, 22 (1975)] and the Feynman ratchet [Z. C. Tu, J. Phys. A 41, 312003 (2008)] recover the universal efficiency at maximum power regardless of any symmetry.
