Geometrical Formulation of Adiabatic Pumping as a Heat Engine

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate a heat engine under an adiabatic (Thouless) pumping process. In this process, the extracted work and lower bound on dissipated availability are characterized by a vector potential and a Riemannian metric tensor, respectively. We derive a trade-off relation between the power and effective efficiency. We also explicitly calculate the trade-off relation as well as the power and effective efficiency for a spin-boson model coupled to two reservoirs.
