This is my next generation stirling engine. I gave up on looking for a thermodynamic simulator package, and started this one from scratch using ideal gas law equations. Im fairly confident this should run, but its its early stages of development.

Of note in particular are the offset displacer crank linkages. I designed it this way to enable the displacer to travel further than the piston.

  • displacer has longer stroke, why?

  • the reason for the longer displacer stroke is a result of the ideal gas law equations i used to determine piston stroke for a given gas volume. to get the gas volume, i needed to increase the size and stroke of the displacer. it was a bit of a fiddle, but worked out to this in the end.
