Stirling Engine and absolute sealing [PDF]
Referring to the sketches, the alternative rotation of shaft (101) allows for absolute sealing between the left side and the right side of seal (1020). A device for total sealing around a shaft in alternating rotation is characterized in that a seal (1020), the main part of the device, called a torsion disc, constitutes the material insulator and is ...

The Stirling engine mechanism optimization
A special type of the gas engine with external combustion is called Stirling engine. The mechanism has two pistons with two volumes inside. The pistons are connected together through cooler, regenerator and warmer. The engine effectivity depends on the piston movement behaviour. The usual sinusoidal time curve leads to low effectiveness.

Stirling Engine Configuration Selection [PDF]
Unlike internal combustion engines, Stirling engines can be designed to work with many drive mechanisms based on the three primary configurations, alpha, beta and gamma. Hundreds of different combinations of configuration and mechanical drives have been proposed. Few succeed beyond prototypes.

Kinematic analysis of Stirling engine [PDF]
The submitted paper presents a kinematic analysis of Stirling engine by the vector method. Position equations are written for various points of the mechanism, and values of velocity and acceleration are obtained from derivation of the equations, depending on time. Equations in matrix form are solved by means of the Matlab program.

Modeling a complete Stirling engine [PDF]
Abstract The assumptions of second order Stirling engine models were reviewed. An ideal adiabatic plus simple heat exchanger model was developed. The model included the external components such as the fan, combustor, and preheater. The external heat transfer to the engine heater was modeled using a log-mean-temperature difference for a constant tube ...

Study of a thermoacoustic-Stirling engine [PDF]
During the last decade most efforts in thermoacoustics have been focused on the development and understanding of the traveling-wave thermoacoustic systems. These systems get much attention because they employ the inherently efficient Stirling cycle.
