Abstract
In this study, the thermoacoustic prime mover using a quartz glass driven by sunlight was developed. The sunlight collected by the parabolic reflector was focused on the stack directly. Considering the balance between sunlight to heat conversion and flow resistance, various stacks that are different from materials and channel shapes were evaluated with temperature difference. The maximum temperature difference is achieved with the honeycomb ceramics stack.
