Recently, it has been found that, with the Rényi statistics, the asymptotically flat Schwarzschild black hole can be in thermal equilibrium with infinite heat reservior at a fixed temperature when its event horizon radius is larger than the characteristic length scale L λ = 1/ √ πλ, where λ is the nonextensivity parameter. In the Rényi extended phase space with the P dV work term, an off-shell free energy in the canonical ensemble with the thermodynamic volume as an order parameter is considered to identify a first-order Hawking-Page (HP) phase transition as a solid/liquid phase transition. It has the latent heat of fusion from solid (corresponding to thermal radiation) to liquid (corresponding to black hole) in the form of ∼ 1/ √ λ; this is evident of the absence of the HP phase transition in the case of asymptotically flat Schwarzschild black hole from the GB statistics (λ = 0). Moreover, we investigate the generalized second law of black hole thermodynamics (GSL) in Rényi statistics by considering the black hole as a working substance in heat engine. Interestingly, an efficiency η of the black hole in a Carnot cycle takes the form η c = 1 − T C /T H . This confirms the validity of the GSL in the Rényi extended phase space.
