论文摘要
将时间纳入热力学可以解决效率和功率之间的权衡。基于开放系统的量子理论，Qubit引擎是一种从第一原理研究这一权衡的玩具模型。我们研究了不可逆性的量子起源，该量子源自在存在外部驾驶的情况下进行热传输，量子摩擦和热化。我们根据Otto和Carnot模板构建各种有限的发动机循环。我们的分析强调了连贯性和熵产生的量子起源的作用。
Incorporating time into thermodynamics allows addressing the tradeoff between efficiency and power. A qubit engine serves as a toy model to study this tradeoff from first principles, based on the quantum theory of open systems. We study the quantum origin of irreversibility, originating from heat transport, quantum friction and thermalization in the presence of external driving. We construct various finite-time engine cycles based on the Otto and Carnot templates. Our analysis highlights the role of coherence and the quantum origin of entropy production.
