Maximum-Power Stirling-like Heat Engine with a Harmonically Confined Brownian Particle by Irene Prieto-Rodríguez, Antonio Prados, Carlos A. Plata

“…In the present work, we study mesoscopic heat engines built with a Brownian particle submitted to harmonic confinement and immersed in a fluid acting as a thermal bath. We design a Stirling-like heat engine, composed of two isothermal and two isochoric branches, by controlling both the stiffness of the harmonic trap and the temperature of the bath. …”
