Advances in Engine Efficiency: Nanomaterials, Surface Engineering, and Quantum-Based Propulsion
Abstract
This study explores ground-breaking methods for improving engine efficiency by combining cutting-edge materials, theoretical frameworks, and alternative energy paradigms. The paper primarily offers a cohesive framework, built from our variational method which combines thermal and entropic engines. We investigate the fabrication of hydrophobic and other functionally specific surfaces using nanomaterials and sophisticated surface engineering techniques that efficiently utilize entropy gradient forces. Additionally, this publication explores the fields of quantum-based propulsion systems and information-burning engines, creating a connecting link between theoretical foundations and real-world technical implementations. The study emphasizes the multifaceted character of engine research and its crucial role in shaping a future in which sustainability and efficiency are intimately connected.
