The purpose of this research is to clarify the requirements for the high output power SMA engine. The main results obtained by this research are as follows. In order to increase the output power of the SMA engine, it is necessary to make the radius of the high temperature wheel as small as possible, while the minimum value of this radius is restricted by the distortion of the SMA belt. On one hand, the output power of the SMA engine distinctly depends on the radius of the high temperature wheel and the diameter of the SMA belt. On the other hand, it slightly depends on the radius of the low temperature wheel and the length of the SMA belt. Thus, we experimentally verified that the output power of the SMA engine distinctly depends on the radius of the high temperature wheel and the diameter of the SMA belt.
