On Thermodynamics of Charged and Rotating Asymptotically AdS Black Strings

In this paper, we study thermodynamics of cylindrically symmetric black holes and calculate the equation of states and heat capacity of charged and rotating black strings. In the process, we treat the cosmological constant as a thermodynamic pressure and its conjugate quantity as a thermodynamic volume. It is shown that, when taking the equivalence between the thermodynamic quantities of black strings and the ones of general thermodynamic system, the isothermal compressibility and heat capacity of black strings satisfy the stability conditions of thermodynamic equilibrium and no divergence points exist for heat capacity. Thus, we obtain the conclusion that the thermodynamic system relevant to black strings is stable and there is no second-order phase transition for AdS black holes in the cylindrically symmetric spacetime
