Prediction on onset conditions of alpha, beta, and gamma type free piston Stirling generators
This manuscript establishes thermal‐dynamic coupling models of different types of free‐piston Stirling generators and uses the Routh stability criterion to predict startup conditions. The proposed method is not only beneficial to understand the startup characteristics of the different types of Stirling generators but also plays a reference role in the ...

An analytical method is proposed to model the magnetic field distribution across a slotless tubular interior permanent magnet machine. The proposed model has both accuracy and low computational burden. Abstract An analytical method is proposed to model the magnetic field distribution across a slotless tubular interior permanent magnet machine. In order

Abstract At present, commercial geothermal power stations are mainly high‐temperature and medium‐temperature geothermal energy, while the large number of low‐temperature geothermal energy resources are rarely used for power generation applications. This paper proposes a new model for energy conversion in low‐temperature geothermal power systems.

The present study experimentally investigates the performance of a power generator constituted by an unpressurized Stirling engine coupled with a new flat‐flame burner. The operative temperature differential of the Stirling engine is within the medium range (around 400 K or less). In this work, there are two types of the engine’s hot‐end‐plate designs,

A method for evaluating the heat rejection efficiency in a Lunar power plant consisting of a free-piston Stirling engine (FPSE) [PDF]
A method for evaluating the heat rejection efficiency in a Lunar power plant consisting of a free-piston Stirling engine FPSE is proposed. The waste heat from the FPSE is absorbed by the refrigerant circulating in a closed pumped loop and then rejected ...

Magnetic Bearings for Free-Piston Stirling Engines [PDF]
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper assesses the feasibility and efficacy of applying magnetic bearings to free-piston Stirling-cycle power conversion machinery currently being developed for long-term space missions. The study was performed for a 50-kWe Reference Stirling Space Power Converter (RSSPC) which currently uses hydrostatic gas ...
