For Stirling engines to enjoy widespread application and acceptance, not only must the fundamental operation of such engines be widely understood, but the requisite analytic tools for the stimulation, design, evaluation and optimization of Stirling engine hardware must be readily available. The purpose of this design manual is to provide an introduction to Stirling cycle heat engines, to organize and identify the available Stirling engine literature, and to identify, organize, evaluate and, in so far as possible, compare non-proprietary Stirling engine design methodologies. This report was originally prepared for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the U. S. Department of Energy.

Some 200 years after the original invention, internal design of a Stirling engine has come to be considered a specialist task, calling for extensive experience and for access to sophisticated computer modelling. The low parts-count of the type is negated by the complexity of the gas processes by which heat is converted to work. Design is perceived as problematic largely because those interactions are neither intuitively evident, nor capable of being made visible by laboratory experiment. There can be little doubt that the situation stands in the way of wider application of this elegant concept. Stirling Cycle Engines re-visits the design challenge, doing so in three stages. Firstly, unrealistic expectations are dispelled: chasing the Carnot efficiency is a guarantee of disappointment, since the Stirling engine has no such pretentions. Secondly, no matter how complex the gas processes, they embody a degree of intrinsic similarity from engine to engine. Suitably exploited, this means that a single computation serves for an infinite number of design conditions. Thirdly, guidelines resulting from the new approach are condensed to high-resolution design charts – nomograms. Appropriately designed, the Stirling engine promises high thermal efficiency, quiet operation and the ability to operate from a wide range of heat sources. Stirling Cycle Engines offers tools for expediting feasibility studies and for easing the task of designing for a novel application. Key features: Expectations are re-set to realistic goals. The formulation throughout highlights what the thermodynamic processes of different engines have in common rather than what distinguishes them. Design by scaling is extended, corroborated, reduced to the use of charts and fully Illustrated. Results of extensive computer modelling are condensed down to high-resolution Nomograms. Worked examples feature throughout. Prime movers (and coolers) operating on the Stirling cycle are of increasing interest to industry, the military (stealth submarines) and space agencies. Stirling Cycle Engines fills a gap in the technical literature and is a comprehensive manual for researchers and practitioners. In particular, it will support effort world-wide to exploit potential for such applications as small-scale CHP (combined heat and power), solar energy conversion and utilization of low-grade heat.

Hot air engines, often called Stirling engines, are among the most interesting and intriguing engines ever to be designed. They run on just about any fuel, from salad oil and hydrogen to solar and geothermal energy. They produce a rotary motion that can be used to power anything, from boats and buggies to fridges and fans. This book demonstrates how to design, build, and optimise Stirling engines. A broad selection of Roy’s engines is described, giving a valuable insight into the many different types and a great deal of information relating to the home manufacture of these engines is included in the workshop section.

This book provides invaluable and detailed information on building and optimizing Stirling engines. It's clear organization and the clarity of explanations and instructions have made the original Italian language version of this book a huge success with Stirling Engine enthusiasts. All 260 pages are printed entirely in color and contain a large number of photos and illustrations. 18 of the authors' miniature engines are presented, each with a technical description, geometric characteristics and performance data, photos, and engine technical data sheets. "Excel" files for the necessary calculations can be obtained free of charge by sending an e-mail to the author. These were created by the author for each type of engines, namely Stirling Alpha, Beta, range engines, Ringbom (vertical and horizontal cylinder) and Manson. These make it easy to both design an engine and optimize it; these calculations include all engine volumes, both functional and "dead". The text is organized so it can be understood by readers with varying degrees of knowledge: to facilitate reading, we have grouped the mathematical notes that are not essential for initial understanding at the end of the relevant chapters. The basic thermodynamic concepts are explained in these notes. The text concerns two engines types: the Stirling (including the Ringbom model, which is the best known), and the Manson, sometimes called the Ruppel engine. There are similarities between the two theoretical cycles used in each; in one respect, however, they differ considerably: the cycle used in a Stirling engine produces mechanical energy by utilizing a gas that is hermetically sealed inside; in fact, the seal is not perfect: some inevitable minor losses occur. In contrast, the Manson is not a closed cycle. The engine that uses the Stirling cycle can be made in three configurations, generally called Alfa, Beta, Gamma, in addition to a fourth, the Ringbom type, in which the displacer is "free", i.e. not connected to the crank mechanism. An important consideration for the Beta and Gamma types is the optimization of output power by establishing the correct ratio between the volume of the displacer and the volume of the working cylinder, factoring different temperatures. Efficiency is calculated and examined. The book begins with the Gamma type, which is the easiest to understand, then the remaining Alfa, Beta and Ringbom types, the latter a "free-piston" engine, and concludes with the Manson type.
