It was first proposed in an 1824 work titled ―Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire‖, and operates on a  thermodynamically reversible cycle consisting of 4 steps: isothermal expansion, isentropic expansion, isothermal  compression, and isentropic compression.

This hypothetical device ideally transfers energy from a hot resevoir to a cold resevoir, producing mechanical work. FTP, name this namesake engine proposed by a French physicist, whose efficiency  is always greater than that of any real heat engine.
