abstract = {We study the energy budget of a first-order cosmological
phase transition, which is an important factor in the
prediction of the resulting gravitational wave spectrum.
Formerly, this analysis was based mostly on simplified
models as for example the bag equation of state. Here, we
present a model-independent approach that is exact up to the
temperature dependence of the speed of sound in the broken
phase. We find that the only relevant quantities that enter
in the hydrodynamic analysis are the speed of sound in the
broken phase and a linear combination of the energy and
pressure differences between the two phases which we call
pseudotrace (normalized to the enthalpy in the broken
phase). The pseudotrace quantifies the strength of the phase
transition and yields the conventional trace of the
energy-momentum tensor for a relativistic plasma (with speed
of sound squared of one third). We study this approach in
several realistic models of the phase transition and also
provide a code snippet that can be used to determine the
efficiency coefficient for a given phase transition strength
and speed of sound. It turns out that our approach is
accurate to the percent level for moderately strong phase
transitions, while former approaches give at best the right
order of magnitude.},
