Abstract: Abstract Coupled diffusion processes model the systems of molecular motors, in which chemical free energy is converted to mechanical energy. Entropy production rate is a crucial term in calculating the efficiency of the motors. In this paper, we calculate the entropy production rates of coupled diffusion processes.
