Definition

theoretical maximum efficiency (ISO 80000-5: Thermodynamics) of a Carnot cycle operating between temperature reservoirs

$C a = (T_{2} - T_{1}) / T_{2}$ ; where

$T$ :: is thermodynamic temperature (ISO 80000-5: Thermodynamics), and +

$T_{2}, T_{1}$ :: are the thermodynamic temperatures of a heat source and a heat sink, respectively

rendement maximal théorique (ISO 80000-5: Thermodynamics) d'un cycle de Carnot fonctionnant entre des sources de chaleur:

$C a = (T_{2} - T_{1}) / T_{2}$ ; où

$T$ :: est la température thermodynamique (ISO 80000-5: Thermodynamics); et

$T_{2}, T_{1}$ :: sont respectivement les températures thermodynamiques d'une source chaude et d'une source froide
