Nature’s Dissymetry

Work – to – Heat 100% Efficient

Heat Flows: High Temp – to – Low Temp

Thomas NewcomenFirst Piston Steam Engine1709

Analyzed the Steam Engine1824

Gas Turbine EngineBrayton or Joule Cycle

Carnot Engine

No engine operating between two heat reservoirs can be more efficient than a Carnot engine operating between those same reservoirs.
