Description
Summary:Abstract In this paper, we discuss the effective thermodynamic quantities of higher dimensional electrically charged hairy black holes in de Sitter spacetime, considering the correlation between the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon. Our results show that, the interaction term determined by the position of the two horizons could significantly contribute to the total entropy of de Sitter spacetime. Moreover, different from the case in AdS spacetime, we find both zero-order and second-order phase transitions under certain conditions, with the absence of first-order phase transition in the electrically charged hairy black holes. These results are strongly supported by the classification of phase transition in Ehrenfest’s equations. More interestingly, our analysis demonstrates the validity of the Ehrenfest equations at the critical point, and futhermore indicates the similarity of Prigogine–Defay (PD) ratio between ECBH spacetime and AdS spacetime.
