Abstract

We present results obtained by using nonlinear irreversible models for heat devices. In particular, we focus on the global performance characteristics, the maximum efficiency and the efficiency at maximum power regimes for heat engines, and the maximum coefficient of performance (COP) and the COP at maximum cooling power regimes for refrigerators. We analyze the key role played by the interplay between irreversibilities coming from heat leaks and internal dissipations. We also discuss the relationship between these results and those obtained by different models.
