New method to analyse and optimise thermoacoustic power generators for the recovery of residual energy

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2020
The analysis of thermoacoustic engines and the equations that describe the internal physical phenomena are far from simple. Previous studies on energetic characterisation of thermoacoustic engines are based only on the determination of the active ...

Using a side-branched volume to tune the acoustic field in a looped-tube travelling-wave thermoacoustic engine with a RC load [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Travelling-wave thermoacoustic engine utilises a compact acoustic network to obtain a right time-phasing between the acoustic velocity and pressure oscillations within the regenerator to force gas parcels to experience a Stirling-like thermodynamic cycle.

Jet pumps for thermoacoustic applications: design guidelines based on a numerical parameter study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The oscillatory flow through tapered cylindrical tube sections (jet pumps) is characterized by a numerical parameter study. The shape of a jet pump results in asymmetric hydrodynamic end effects which cause a time-averaged pressure drop to occur under ...

Mover guide in a linear electric generator with double‐sided stationary stators

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 17, Page 3986-3990, June 2019., 2019
This study addresses double‐sided stationary stators in a linear electric generator with similar operation to a linear oscillatory motion electric machine. The plate mover in the linear electric generator's double‐sided stationary stators is powered by the acoustic power output of the thermoacoustic engine's acoustic line.
