The present study is aimed to develop a miniature 10W Stirling generator with designs, fabrications, and assembly. Firstly, an analytical model is used to give engine a predictions and designs. Secondly, output power and mechanical loss are measured after designing and assembling components of engine. Finally, a generator is connected to the engine for generating electricity.
The analytical model built by Cheng and Yu [24] in this study is used to give a simulation and comparison under the same operating parameters of performance curve. Then the outlines of fabrications and designs of β type Stirling engine with rhombic drive mechanism are applied.
An eddy current dynamometer is installed to measure the output power of the engine under different conditions. In addition, mechanical loss of the engine is determined by using a test station combining a torque sensor and a DC motor. Meanwhile, a generator is connected to the Stirling engine for generating electricity by varying value of resistances in the load.
Results show that for the case with the following parameters:
The length of displacer Ld=79.5 mm
Regeneration gap G=0.75 mm
Hot end temperature TH=1200 K
The predicted output power by the analytical model is 12.10 W. On the other hand, the measured output power by the dynamometer is 9.48 W with a mechanical loss of 0.34 W measured by test station. More recently, the engine produces electricity of 5.92 W as it is connected to the electric generator.
