G0601-2-5 Thermal regeneration Characteristic of Regenerator in Stirling Engine

Abstract

Experimental researches have been conducted to improve the regeneration performance of regenerator of the α type Stirling engine. The attention was mainly paid to the pressure losses and actual heat transfer, which have effects on the performance of Stirling engine operations. On the report, we use two type different mesh in wire net and experimentally found characteristics of flow and heat transfer, inhibiting fluid leak between inside wall of regenerator and outer circumference of the wire nets.
