Abstract
A thermoacoustic engine consists of a working gas, a regenerator, heat exchangers, and an acoustic resonator. When the temperature ratio of the two heat exchangers exceeds a critical value, the engine converts heat into acoustic power. One of the most important scales in a thermoacoustic device is the length of its resonator, which in this study, the effect of the change of the resonator length on the critical temperature ratio is addressed.
