Life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) of Stirling-cycle-based heat pumps vs. conventional boilers
Heat pumps (HPs) which use low temperature (waste) heat and renewable energy sources to provide high temperature heat are widely regarded as a critical technology for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the industrial sector.

Statistical generalization of regenerative bosonic and fermionic Stirling cycles [PDF]
We have constructed a unified framework for generalizing the finite-time thermodynamic behavior of statistically distinct bosonic and fermionic Stirling cycles with regenerative characteristics. In our formalism, working fluid consisting of particles obeying Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein statistics are treated under equal footing and modelled as a ...

Efficiency Reduction in Stirling Engines Resulting from Sinusoidal Motion
Stirling engines have a high potential to produce renewable energy due to their ability to use a wide range of sustainable heat sources, such as concentrated solar thermal power and biomass, and also due to their high theoretical efficiencies.

Analytical Solution of Heat Transfer Performance of Grid Regenerator in Inverse Stirling Cycle
The regenerator plays an extremely important role in the Stirling circulation. A grid regenerator can be used for inverse Stirling machines at room temperature due to its low flow resistance.

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