Development of Heat Engines Powered by Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fiber Actuators
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Continuously rotating engines driven by thermally responsive actuating materials can turn waste heat into useful energy. For the first time heat engines operated by twisted and coiled polymer fiber actuators are demonstrated with engine design guided by two simple analytical models.
