This has been discussed before on Ars, such as at https://arstechnica.com/civis/threa...ost-efficient-heat-pump-in-the-world.1501605/, and https://arstechnica.com ...

A long-standing law of thermodynamics turns out to have a loophole at the smallest scales. Researchers have shown that quantum engines made of correlated particles can exceed the traditional ...

People generate lots of waste heat. It makes sense that there is a desire to convert that heat into usable energy. The problem is one of efficiency. Researchers from MIT and the National Renewable ...

Engineers have developed a heat engine with no moving parts that is as efficient as a steam turbine. The design could someday enable a fully decarbonized power grid, researchers say. Engineers at MIT ...

Wärtsilä’s Sean Hughes shares why engine-based data center onsite generation is ascending the podium in the race to power up ...
