Abstract
We have established an irreversible macro/nano thermosize engine cycle model. A possibly new thermodynamic power cycle based on thermosize effects is analyzed. Expressions for some important parameters, such as the power output and efficiency are derived. Some fundamental optimal relations and general performance characteristic curves of the cycle are obtained. Furthermore, the efficiency at maximum power output of the macro/nano thermosize engine, performing finite time cycles, in which the time of regenerative processes and dissipation are considered. The results obtained here will provide theoretical guidance for the design some new macro/nano scaled devices.
