Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does ...

The first law of thermodynamics is one of the bedrock laws of physics. Even if you’re not gung-ho for physics research, you might have heard the simplified version: energy can neither be created nor ...

According to the researchers, Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. He developed his principle, the ...

Researchers have discovered a method to surpass traditional thermodynamic limits in converting waste heat into electricity.

Researchers find a way to overcome conventional thermodynamic limits when converting waste heat into electricity.

In medicinal chemistry, the binding affinity of a small-molecule scaffold (possibly discovered through a fragment-based approach) for a therapeutic target is optimized from millimolar to nanomolar ...

Everyone knows baby boomers in the power sector have reached retirement age, meaning many new hires will be thrust into technical positions where fundamental information is valuable. One such area is ...
