The obtained results show that entropy generation is mainly due to coupling effects between heat and mass transfer near the gas-liquid interface.

For the case of ideal gas as working fluid and a given switching time, it is shown that maximum work is obtained at Curzon-Ahlborn efficiency. Our expressions clearly show the dependence on the relative magnitudes of heat capacities of the fluid and the reservoirs.
