Stirling Engine Generator- An Ultimate Heat Engine

Image
The Stirling Engine is a secured high-efficiency heat engine powered either by the Sun's radiant energy or any other external heat source. The Stirling cycle engine, invented by Robert Stirling a couple of centuries ago, is a type of solar generator or sun motor that works on the principle of thermodynamics by switching between hot and cold temperature cycles of   gaseous matter. Stirling Engine Generator Working The  Stirling Engine Generator   primarily comprised of a hot-air engine that is heated externally typically by the sunlight from the Sun— it is further powered by what Robert Stirling called an "economizer," which embodies and discharges energy from and into an impounded and enclosed air space. When the air within this confined space (or some other form of working gas) is heated, it expands and shrinks when it cools down. A piston is propelled mainly by helium or hydrogen gas compression or expansion that never leaves the generator. T
