DOI 10.1115/1.4045929
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract This article discusses the use of thermal shock to transform thermal energy into work. A new concept in understanding the laws of conversion of thermal energy into mechanical energy is presented. The relevance of the research in this direction is substantiated. The potential thermodynamic effectiveness of this process is determined. It presents higher efficiency compared with the traditional methods of converting heat into work based on the expansion of the working material. This article describes the method and the algorithm of the experiment to determine the operational capability of thermal shock and shows the predicted results of the experiments. The possibility to construct a completely new thermal engine with an efficiency of close to 100% is also mentioned.
