Abstract
We study the impact of entangling measurements on the efficiency of quantum measurement- based engines. We first show that for engines comprising many subsystems their efficiency can be enhanced by performing entangling measurements, as opposed to local measurements over each subsystem. When the collective measurement produces the same local state for the subsystems as individual local measurements, the improvement in the efficiency is proportional to the amount of correlations. Finally, we show that for two level systems these type of engine can operate at perfect efficiency while yielding a finite amount of work, in the limit large the number of subsystems.
