JOTS v37n2 - Innovative Rotary Displacer Stirling Engine: Sustainable Power Generation for Private and Fleet Vehicle Applications

The Stirling cycle and related terminology is defined. Selected contemporary research involving the cycle in environmentally friendly applications is cited. Three conventional engine configurations that utilize a reciprocating power piston and crank shaft (the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma) are characterized, in terms of minimum number of components, advantages, and disadvantages. A new type of Stirli...

Numerical Simulation of Beta Type Stirling Engine Considering Heat and Power Losses

In this paper, numerical solution of beta-type Stirling engine was presented considering its non-ideal regenerator. To this end, the second-order model including heat and power losses was used. Then, a numerical code was applied for calculating geometrical and physical optimum values of the engine. To confirm the obtained results, the physical and geometrical parameters of the GPU-3 engine were...

Performance analysis a gas turbine cycle equipped with a double acting type stirling engine in a power generating unit

The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of a gas turbine cycle equipped with a Stirling engine from the thermodynamic point of view. In this system, part of the heat loss from the gas turbine is transmitted to a Stirling engine to generate more power. In the proposed system analysis, the governing equations of the hybrid cycle are modeled in MATLAB software and Schmidt and ideal...

Sensitivity analysis of dependency of working fluid thermo-dynamics properties to temperature on performance of Gama-type Stirling engine

This research proposes the effect of temperature variation in the Prandtl number on the power, the efficiency and the heat loss of the Gama-type Stirling engine. It should be noted that the Prandtl number included the viscosity, the thermal conductivity coefficient and the specific heat at constant pressures of the working fluid, which the temperature dependency of such first two thermo-dynamic...
