Carnot Game Casual Physics

Carnot Game is an engaging and educational interactive experience centered around the Carnot Cycle. Players must strategically switch between three thermal sources—hot, insulator, and cold—to optimize the work performed on a piston within a cylinder. The objective is to maintain the piston’s operation within the ideal Carnot cycle by timing the transitions perfectly, preventing the cylinder from either exploding or freezing. The more accurately you mimic the Carnot cycle, the higher your score and progress. Can you master the science and keep the piston running smoothly?
