Abstract:Summary
Stirling engine research has increased and opened new industrial opportunities. Stirling engines have the advantage of running on any sort of thermal energy. However, their biggest downside is their low experimental efficiency compared to Carnot's optimal efficiency. Thus, much research studies the optimal working parameters of this engine. Most existing models evaluate the Stirling engine's performance using the perfect gas assumption. However, this assumption is only valid for low pressures. At high … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
