Carnot Efficiency Calculator

Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that studies the most general properties of macroscopic systems and the methods of energy transfer and conversion in such systems. In thermodynamics, states and processes are studied, for the description of which one can introduce the concept of temperature.

In thermodynamics, the Carnot cycle or the Carnot process is an ideal circular process consisting of two adiabatic and two isothermal processes. In the Carnot process, the thermodynamic system performs mechanical work by exchanging heat with two heat reservoirs that have constant but different temperatures. A tank with a higher temperature is called a heater, and with a lower temperature.
