Abstract
Bose-Einstein condensation is a quintessential characteristic of Bose systems. We investigate the finite-time performance of an endoreversible quantum Brayton heat engine operating with an ideal Bose gas with a finite number of particles confined in a d-dimensional harmonic trap. The working medium of these engines may work in the condensation, noncondensation, and near-critical point regimes, respectively. We demonstrate that the existence of the phase transition during the cycle leads to enhanced engine performance by increasing power output and efficiencies corresponding to maximum power and maximum efficient power. We also show that the quantum engine working across the Bose-Einstein condensation in N-particle Bose gas outperforms an ensemble of independent single-particle heat engines. The difference in the machine performance can be explained in terms of the behavior of specific heat at constant pressure near the critical point regime.
