Calorimetry for equilibrium systems aims to determine the energy levels' occupation and distribution by measuring thermal response, while nonequilibrium versions provide additional information on the dynamical accessibility of these states. Using calculations on a driven exclusion process, it is confirmed that a fermionic nonequilibrium steady state with exact computation of specific heat can be achieved. The divergence at zero temperature occurs when the Fermi energy and the kinetic barrier for loading and emptying are approximately equal. Additionally, a stable low temperature regime of negative specific heat appears when the kinetic barrier is density-dependent, indicating an anti-correlation between the stationary occupation's temperature-dependence and excess heat.
Calorimetry for equilibrium systems aims to determine the available microscopic occupation and distribution of energy levels by measuring thermal response. Nonequilibrium versions are expected to add information on the dynamical accessibility of those states. We perform calculations on a driven exclusion process on an array of particle stations, confirming that expectation. That Markov model produces a fermionic nonequilibrium steady state where the specific heat is computed exactly by evaluating the heat fluxes that are entirely due to a change in ambient temperature. We observe a zero-temperature divergence (violation of the Third Law) when the Fermi energy and the kinetic barrier for loading and emptying become approximately equal. Finally, when the kinetic barrier is density-dependent, a stable low temperature regime of negative specific heat appears, indicating an anti-correlation between the temperature-dependence of the stationary occupation and the excess heat.
