摘 要:In this work, the stability of an endoreversible Curzon-Ahlbom engine is analyzed, using Van der Waals gas as a working substance and the corresponding efficiency for this engine working at temperatures withinthe maximum ecological regime. By mean s of a local stability analysis we find that a critical point of an almost linear system is stable andanalytically expressed in eigenvalues. After an arbitrarily small perturbation, the system state exponentially decays to a critical point, with either of two characteristic relaxation times, which are a function of the thermal conductance (a), heat capacity (C) and T=T2/T1. The behavior of relaxation times and solution of the systems are qualitatively shown by sketching its phase portrait, which results susceptible to operating regimes, i.e., the eigenvectors in the maximum ecological regime have a clockwise rotation with respect to the eigenvectors in the regime of maximumpower. Finally, it has to observe that afterto λvw = 1, approximation,ηVWE=4^-3ηC is obtained, where ηVWE is the Van der Waals efficiency atrnaximum ecological regime and r/c is Carnot's efficiency. Finally, it discussed the local stability and steady state of the energetic properties of the endoreversible engine.
