This is the first video I've shown on any of my work on project SunFlower. The Solar Stirling Engine mounts to a solar collector dish and generator to make electric power from sunshine.

This video is of the rhombic drive model, built to dial in the unknowns on the lower gearbox dimensions. This engine design is the second of two: Stirling Two.

  • awesome !!!

  • Thanks IT,

    Keep Moving Forward.

    Just Build It!

  • This looks very interesting!

    But I just wonder, how much loss do you think there is in this system because of the crank? I know you will use this and another system but if you had got rid of the crank it could have been much more efficient...

    Tommey Lee Red showed a very smart way to do this, it could be very close to a 100% efficient.

  • Can you send me a PM with some links and details?

see all

  • @PulseFuelNerd I WILL KILL U IF U WONT TELL ME HOW TO BUILD IT XD AND GIVE ME FREE EQUIPMENTS XD herhehe

  • Looks like a good way to figure out proportions for conecting rods. I'm currently in the middle of researching stering enigines for a project of my own. If you don't mind I have a few questions for you. Are you going to put a regenerator on this engine? And how are you figuring what your displacement ratios should be for cool/hot cycles of the engine? ( I understand this is determined by bore and stroke, but how do you arive at the initial displacement figures?) , as well as displacer disp.

  • Have Rhombic drive some advantage?

  • 5 stars, Thank you. It's nice to have someone who can explain what their doing. Great video

  • Excellente demonstration du systeme.

  • Stirling2 will produce 1-2KW. Stirling1 will produce 3-5KW.
