In this study, we examined performance and characteristics of regenerator composed of three types of mesh sheet matrix. The mesh sheets were installed in a 3 kW double-acting stirling engine SERENUM05, and each matrix performance were examined from the engine operating results. Also, characteristics differences between two-piston and double-acting type engines are examined. As the results, it was clear that the mesh sheet, M3, has the largest indicated efficiency among the manufactured mesh sheets, and the required characteristics of regenerator matrix for the double-acting stirling engine are different from those of the two-piston type.
