The Carnot Cycle

Tags: #physics #thermodynamics #the carnot cycle

Equation

$$\eta=1-\frac{|Q_2|}{|Q_1|}=1-\frac{T_2}{T_1}:=\eta_{\rm C} \\ \xi=\frac{|Q_2|}{W}=\frac{|Q_2|}{|Q_1|-|Q_2|}=\frac{T_2}{T_1-T_2}$$

Latex Code

                                 \eta=1-\frac{|Q_2|}{|Q_1|}=1-\frac{T_2}{T_1}:=\eta_{\rm C} \\
            \xi=\frac{|Q_2|}{W}=\frac{|Q_2|}{|Q_1|-|Q_2|}=\frac{T_2}{T_1-T_2}

Explanation

Latex code for the Carnot Cycle. The throttle process is used in refrigerators for example. I will briefly introduce the notations in this formulation.

  • : efficiency for a Carnot cycle
  • : the cold factor when process is applied in reverse order and the system performs a work -W
