  "abstract": "The present work investigates the effect of inertia on the entropy production rate $\\Pi$ for all canonical models of active particles, for different dimensions and the type of confinement. To calculate $\\Pi$, the link between the entropy production and dissipation of heat rate is explored. By analyzing the Kramers equation in a stationary state, alternative formulations of $\\Pi$ are obtained and the virial theorem for active particles is derived. Exact results are obtained for particles in an unconfined environment and in a harmonic trap. In both cases, $\\Pi$ is independent of temperature. In contrast, for active particles in 1D box, thermal fluctuations are found to reduce $\\Pi$.",
