Quantum Advantage of Thermal Machines with Bose and Fermi Gases

Abstract: In this article, we show that a quantum gas, a collection of massive, non-interacting, indistinguishable quantum particles, can be realized as a thermodynamic machine as an artifact of energy quantization and, hence, bears no classical analog. Such a thermodynamic machine depends on the statistics of the particles, the chemical potential, and the spatial dimension of the system. Our detailed analysis demonstrates the fundamental features of quantum Stirling cycles, from the viewpoint of particle statistics and… Show more

“…For a single-particle, there is double degeneracy in the quantized energy levels if a single barrier is inserted isothermally [4,15,22]. For N non-interacting indistinguishable particles there will be 2 N degeneracy in the combined partition function when in boxes B and C of figure 1 [14].…”

“…In the Stirlinglike cycle in figure 1, the system (a single-particle) is coupled to the hot bath of temperature T h when the particles are in boxes A and B. Similarly, the system is coupled to the cold bath of temperature T c when the particles are in boxes C and D [4,14,29]. Therefore from figure 1, heat is supplied to the system via the processes (2) and (3), and heat is absorbed from the system via the processes (1) and (4) [14].…”
