Influence of resonator diameter on a miniature thermoacoustic Stirling heat engine
A small scale thermoacoustic Stirling engine (TASHE) is simulated according to the linear thermoacoustic theory. The computed results show that in a small scale thermoacoustic Stirling heat engine, the diameter of the resonance tube might have important influences on the working frequency and the performance of the engine, which are always neglected in
