STIRLING ENGINE Solar Stirling Engine Compressor Conversion Solar Training

SOLAR POWER TRAINING COURSE This is a follow-up STIRLING CYCLE ENGINE video to the Compressor Conversion. The original design required too much heat on the displacer side due to excess volume inside the piston. By adding a large displacer, you reduce the working gas volume and dramatically increase the surface area to the heat source. The piston attached to the displacer is exposed to 80% less heat than the previous design preventing damage to the rings, also reducing wear and lubricant breakdown. The heat sinked cylinder on the hot side is also saved from heat damage.

Dan you take action on Dr. Offensive182.........dont take threats lightly..........

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Thank you, I pulled his comment:-)

Best Regards and thanks again.

Dan

Hey Dan, are you educated in this thing or you just picked it up as a hobby and it grew to be this amazing? Your work is great I am still trying to figure out how you pay for your living but keep up the great job

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Thanks for the nice comment. A little of both in regards to learning, the living thing, spend little:-)

This one should work good.

When

you

place the displacer cover

can you weld it or is there a simpler way?

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

I have tested it with high temp silicone and it does not work well. Higher pressure pops it but that is good. Trying to come up with a way to test without welding.

Another huge long video and he still hasn't got it running!!!

[advthinker]

Being i have a lame o dial up service, it took 2 hrs to load and watch! did you ever get it to work? i think if you used magnalube on the crank and bore you would be impr. with the preformance. worked on test machines that had over a million strokes and the orings in the bore were not even worn. i watched because of the sphere, i have a 18 inch one, and thought that was what you were going to heat the engine with. after all you wont have to trac the sun with it. but it needs to be a clear one.

What cant comment about long videos that could of got to the point in two mins instead of ten?

@rejisseur

Hmm i just ran this through google translator and it came up with "*@ck you to hell!!!!!"

Charming!

Good stuff... love the cat at the end, he looks just like one of mine! Since Stirlings don't really compress air but rather just displace air internally, would I be correct in assuming that one wouldn't need to be built nearly as stout as something like this, more like pistons and cylinders could be constructed out of thin wall tubing like exhaust pipe? That way it would have a ton less mass in moving parts but also would allow both external AND internal heating and cooling on either side?

Mr. Rojas,

I'd like to thank you for all the great work that you put into your projects.

Your videos have given me tons of ideas.

Thanks,

Angel

Wouldn't it be more efficient to use a turbine system powered by steam? all the parts move one way....i would assume less energy is lost overall. ive seen a couple of videos online that show demos of high RPM turbines, they seem the way to go. would i be wrong?
