My new alpha stirling engine model up to 1500 rpm

This model reaches between 1500 and 1700 rpm and is very easy to make.It is the more powerful I´ve made and too more small.Due to srroboscopic effect i looks as low speed,but really speed is very high.

I don't see how this could be alpha.

@Aviator168 An alpha engine is as a beta engine but the displacer piston is too a power piston.Ith is not necesary be at 180º, because it can be fixed in the cranks.

Profe,por dónde sale el aire del pistón caliente?Tiene fugas "exprofeso" dicho pistón ?No lo veo claro en el video.çGracias

How much torque?

[birdyboy12]

Lol for cam lag making it look slow XD

[wormsmaster1994]

amazing.

emagine how much speed it would have uf u where able to use small bearings for them.

(though i dont know if they make them this small and bearings are relativly heavy...)

Profesor: Excelente motor stirling, de los que he visto en la web el mas rapido. me inspira para hacerme uno. saludos de colombia.

Disculpe, podria hacer eso yo tambien en mi casa para una maqueta¿=?... Como podria hacerlo¿=? seria muy util si hay forma de hacerlo con materiales faciles de conseguir y si los pistones podria hacerlos yo mismo... gracias....

OK. I took sometime thought it over again. Your engine should belong to a separate class, not Alpha, Beta, Garma, but much closer to Alpha. I think you just solved the biggest problem of alpha stirling engines - sealing the piston on the hot cylinder. The sealing issue has been haunting the development of Alpha stirlings for a very long time and that is probably why we don't see that many Alphas out there. Job well done.

[Aviator168]

@profesorjuano What makes a stirling alpha is that there is NO displacer in the engine itself. The 'piston' in your hot cylinder is acting as displacer, not a power piston. Also, an alpha engine has the linkage on the top of the cylinders.

If you added a water jacket to the cold side, would that just speed it up, or would it increase the torque?
