Thermodynamic engine powered by anisotropic fluctuations

The purpose of this paper is to present the concept of an autonomous Stirling-like engine powered by anisotropy of thermodynamic fluctuations. Specifically, simultaneous contact of a thermodynamic system with two heat baths along coupled degrees of freedom generates torque and circulatory currents—a...
