A ratchet for heat transport between identical reservoirs

Souvik Das, Onuttom Narayan, Sriram Ramaswamy

Published 2002-06-19Version 1

A one-dimensional periodic array of elastically colliding hard points, with a non-centrosymmetric unit cell, connected at its two ends to {\em identical but non-thermal} energy reservoirs, is shown to carry a sustained unidirectional energy current.
