Thanks Tom

I will prepare some CAO drawings

Hello, I have an industrialist who is willing to finance a prototype of the Stirling engine with my concept. I would like to have an idea of the price of manufacturing a Stirling engine. I am thinking of making pistons with diameters of about 2 to 3 cm and using self-lubricating rings for the piston...

The reason I was interested in the Stirling engine was that I installed 30 square meters of solar thermal panels on the roof of my house. In summer, I cannot use this solar energy source, I do not have for example a swimming pool. I looked at the Stirling engine to produce electricity from this sola...

it is not only the exchanger that is an evolution. In order to present the interest of the Stirling engine type, I describe the current versions and the new version There are mainly 3 types of Stirling engine (α, β, ɣ) Theoretical schematic of these engines theoAlpha.jpg In practice, Stirling engine...

For now, I'm going to model an exchanger like Tom drew in the post above. With 3d printers, we can make complex shapes.

As soon as I find time, I will do a numerical modeling of the exchanger with openfoam. Now with 3d printers, we can make complex shapes with conductive materials.

What seems difficult to me, for a heat exchanger you need an extremely large exchange surface to have an efficient exchanger. But it is not necessary to create an exchanger with large internal volumes. I think it is possible to design the exchanger with cavities as proposed by Tom. I am in contact w...

I agree. It takes a lot of surface area to get a good exchanger. What is interesting about the Tesla diode is that in one direction of fluid flow there is no pressure drop and on the contrary there is a pressure drop in the opposite direction. Tom Booth's version of the Tesla diode is an excellent i...

I wrote a preprint. It's not necessarily an easy read for everyone.

Hi bbrennan, To answer your proposal, I am looking for a company that would allow me to develop my new Stirling engine concept. You can watch this post "new concept of Stirling engine" or my website http://www.cyberquebec.ca/normandajc/ The International Engine Association is looking to fu...

In the forum "Animated Stirling Engine... 'gifs'"
I added an animated gif of the engine

To complete the collection of animated gif, I created this animated gif of my new type of engine

your animation is very realistic. I recognize it. Moreover, your animation is nice. My animation does not take into account the heat recovery during the cooling operation. I wanted to make an animation so that everyone can watch it and interpret it easily.

Effectively I think that a patent would have been possible on toroidal design.
If I write something about this process I will quote you.

Hello to all on my site www.cyberquebec.ca/normandajc/ I made a small modification I have added this film that presents the Stirling cycle https://dracoon.team/public/download-shares/zldwQmuW6vA8CBQwkHRl0zVUDZ0Cialj Regarding the Tesla diode, does anyone know if it is free to use? I found the Tesla ...
