1ピストンスターリングエンジン性能に及ぼす位相制御の影響

抄録

Generally, Stirling engines have either two pistons in two cylinders or two pistons in a single cylinder, and a heater, regenerator and cooler are installed between the pistons (except for the double-acting type engine). A single-piston Stirling engine, on the other hand, consists of a single piston in a single cylinder, a cooler, a regenerator, a heater and a gas damper. The gas damper has a role equivalent to the expansion piston or the displacer piston. Therefore, a prototype engine has been fabricated using pressurized helium as the working gas. The basic characteristics of this engine have been examined experimentally. In this research, effect of phase control on the engine performance has been examined experimentally. In addition, using an isothermal model assumed this engine with deformed gamma type Stirling engine, the engine performance has been calculated and compared with the experimental results.
