Q
what is carnot engine
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
The Carnot engine. introduced by French physicist Sadi Carnot in 1824 and refined over time. is a theoretical engine that operates on a reversible Carnot cycle. Emile Clapeyron extended the model in 1834. leading to the development of Carnot's theorem and law. This engine incorporates the fundamental principle of thermodynamics. which explains heat transfer. temperature changes. energy. and entropy. According to Carnot's design. an ideal engine would be one that runs on a reversible Carnot cycle and operates at maximum efficiency. This concept is significant in analyzing systems that use heat as a work substance or involve cyclic processes. While perfecting the Carnot engine may not be feasible theoretically or practically. understanding its potential for maximum efficiency can provide valuable insights into heat engines operating between two constant-temperature heat reservoirs.
