Improving Free-Piston Stirling Engine Specific Power [PDF]

open access: yes12th International Energy Conversion Engineering Conference, 2014
This work uses analytical methods to demonstrate the potential benefits of optimizing piston and/or displacer motion in a Stirling engine. Isothermal analysis was used to show the potential benefits of ideal motion in ideal Stirling engines. Nodal analysis is used to show that ideal piston and displacer waveforms are not optimal in real Stirling ...
