I think we can also agree that the planet has a lot
of heat engines which do interesting things: grow plants, produce weather, etc..
It would have helped to get a description of how such
heat engines work in your post.
In order for this to work, we have to find new ways of improving the efficiency of
quantum heat engines.
The tropical ocean is where the majority of the sun's energy enters the
huge heat engine we call the climate.
Traditionally,
heat engines produce heat from the exchange between high - temperature and low - temperature baths.
He is known for his analysis of an
ideal heat engine, but his chief interest was the practical application of steam power.
Their models allow the building
of heat engine not conforming to the second law.
Hurricanes (Fig. 7) and other tropical cyclones can be thought of
as heat engines that take energy in by evaporating warm ocean water, and eject it at a colder temperature near the tropopause after air rises and water condenses in the eyewall [14].
Today's Ram 1500 employs a production - first thermal management system that taps
into heated engine coolant to speed up the warmup of automatic transmission fluid and engine oil to maximize the fuel saving benefits of those fluids.
Controlling the parameters influencing how such quantum
heat engine models work could dramatically increase our power to manipulate the quantum states of the coupled atom - cavity, and accelerate our ability to process quantum information.
Should we not be unrealising a lot more radiative imbalance by creating energy moving surface heat to the ocean abyss
through heat engines?
In our work we show that the
dissipative heat engine where mechanical work output is supposed to grow due to internal dissipation of work produced in the previous cycles, is thermodynamically inconsistent and can not exist.
Today's Ram 1500 employs a thermal management system that taps into
heated engine coolant to speed up the warmup of automatic transmission fluid and engine oil to maximize the fuel saving benefits of those fluids.
«Quantum manipulation power for quantum information processing gets a boost: Improving the efficiency of quantum
heat engines involves reducing the number of photons in a cavity, ultimately impacting quantum manipulation power.»
(PS the production and consumption of kinetic energy is relatively small compared to heat fluxes, although it is very important to the circulation of the atmosphere (and ocean); kinetic energy is converted from heat by motions that act
like heat engines; it can be converted back to heat by the opposite kind of motion, and also by viscosity.
One reason for my problems is that Willis often makes obvious errors like in the recent post where he discussed the atmospheric
heat engine putting the warm side to the tropics (right) and the cold side to the poles (wrong).
«In the context of the full system, we suggest that the efficiency could one day rival the
best heat engines available on planet today.»

Most research reported in the energy literature suggests that the conversion rate of TPV would be less than 20 percent, not competitive with
other heat engines.
It combines direct injection with supplemental injection into the induction pipe, varies the valve stroke based on load using the Audi valvelift system and utilises a very elaborate thermal management system to quickly
heat the engine after a cold start.
