A Comprehensive Perspective of Waste Heat Recovery Potential from Solar Stirling Engines [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Despite the higher efficiency advantage, the cost reduction of PV technology has been more successful compared to the dish Stirling engine (DSE) due to the large market volume and sturdy competition.

A Potential Method to Predict Performance of Positive Stirling Cycles Based on Reverse Ones

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
There are two kinds of working mechanisms for the Stirling cycle, i.e., the positive and the reverse cycles, and a Stirling engine (SE) can be operated as a Stirling refrigerator (SR).

Numerical investigation of a new combined energy cycle based on Miller cycle, Organic Rankine cycle, Stirling engine and alkaline fuel cell

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2021
Using a combined energy cycle based on conventional and/ or clean energy sources can be a suitable option to dominate the limitations in the field of energy. Meanwhile, the select of the prime power source in such processes is a challengeable issue.

Analytical model for Stirling cycle machine design [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management, 2010
In order to study further the promising free piston Stirling engine architecture, there is a need of an analytical thermodynamic model which could be used in a dynamical analysis for preliminary design. To aim at more realistic values, the models have to take into account the heat losses and irreversibilities on the engine.

Application of Stirling cooler to food processing: Feasibility study on butter churning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The Stirling cycle engine was invented almost 190 years ago. In this study, the reverse Stirling cycle is investigated for use in refrigeration. This type of cycle is referred to as Stirling cooling or cooler. An experimental free-piston Stirling cooler (

Stirling Numbers of Uniform Trees and Related Computational Experiments

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2023
The Stirling numbers for graphs provide a combinatorial interpretation of the number of cycle covers in a given graph. The problem of generating all cycle covers or enumerating these quantities on general graphs is computationally intractable, but recent
