Works
- 1824 Sadi published Réflexions
sur la puissance motrice du feu et sur
les machines propres à développer cette
puissance (Reflection of the Motive
Power of Fire)
- This was on two
questions:
- Is there an upper limit
to the power of heat?
- Is there a better means
than steam to produce power?
- And the Carnot Cycle
- this is an unattainable
yet perfect heat engine.
