The results presented in this work may offer some insights into the high-speed manufacturing of paper and fabric sheets.We propose a three-qubit setup for the implementation of a variety of quantum thermal machines where all heat fluxes and work production can be controlled. An important configuration that can be designed is that of an absorption refrigerator, extracting heat from the coldest reservoir without the need of external work supply. Remarkably, we achieve this regime by using only two-body interactions instead of the widely employed three-body interactions. This configuration could be more easily realized in current experimental setups. We model the open-system dynamics with both a global and a local master equation thermodynamic-consistent approach. Finally, we show how this model can be employed as a heat valve, in which by varying the local field of one of the two qubits allows one to control and amplify the heat current between the other qubits.Transport of water in narrow nanochannels as a single-file chain is involved in various biological activities and nanofluidic applications. However, although the consistent dipole orientation of the water molecules is intensively studied, its effect upon the transport behavior is still unknown. In this Rapid Communication, we find two states of slow and fast transport coexist in the single-file water in the presence of channel defects that break the collective dipole orientation. A low diffusive mobility is found for the dipole orientation inconsistent configurations while mobility approximately two times higher is found for the consistent ones. The two-state diffusion process relies on the different hydrogen bond connections, which possess overlapped structures, enabling a spontaneous transition. The slow state is insensitive to the increased defect number while the fast state is reduced accor
