In order to develop a household co-generation system, we need a compact and high efficient power source. A Stirling engine, which has excellent characteristics such as high ideal efficiency and low pollution, is one of the suitable power sources for the co-generation system. In this study, we aim to develop a high efficient Stirling engine. And a ceramics heat exchanger is developed. It has high heatproof performance and high heat conduction, then the Stirling engine can have higher operating temperature. We also develop a prototype Stirling engine for investigation of the ceramics heat exchanger. In this paper, we discuss a fundamental performance of the engine.
