Q
how does a sterling engine work
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
A Stirling engine is a type of heat engine that operates by cyclic compression and expansion of air or other gas at different temperatures, such that there is a net conversion of heat energy to mechanical work. The engine is like a steam engine in that all of the engine's heat flows in and out through the engine wall.
Here's a step-by-step process of how a Sterling engine works:
1. The working gas (usually air, hydrogen or helium) inside the engine absorbs heat from the external source, which can be any type of energy, including solar, chemical, nuclear and others. This external heat source warms up a heat exchanger (the hot cylinder) and in turn heats the gas inside it.
2. As the gas is heated, it expands and pushes a piston. This is the work phase of the Sterling cycle.
3. The expanded gas then flows into a cooling heat exchanger (the cold cylinder), where it cools and contracts.
4. The cycle then repeats.
The Stirling engine is noted for its high efficiency compared to steam engines, quiet operation, and its ability to use almost any heat source. Therefore, the cycle is commonly used in dish/antenna linked with power generator systems, submarines, yachts, auxiliary power systems, and combined heat and power (CHP) units.
