Non-reciprocal superconducting elements, called Josephson diodes, have received increased attention in the past years. Here we explore the possibility of utilizing the reciprocity breaking to realize a thermal engine. To this end, we study the system coupled to two reservoirs at different temperatures. We investigate the influence of the different parameters in order to maximize the efficiency.
