Hi Corrie, quick guess, is load shedding killing you? The questions that you ask make me think that you are not familiar with engines of any kind. You are also looking for a cheap solution to your Eskom problem... Before you waste your time and money I want to give you a heads-up.There are no proper...

Thanks for the comments, can you maybe point me in the right direction concerning proper practical alpha designs. No point in me trying to go the stirling route if the basis of what i know is not correct.
Rather embarrassing.

There is a large number of variables concerning the transfer tube on a Alpha engine that will affect performance in many different ways. On a Alpha engine the transfer tube is also the regenerator. If the tube is made of metal it will lose heat(energy) to the surrounding environment, thus losing tor...

The displacement of a engine is the volume of the power producing cylinders during one full power stroke. This excludes any other volumes like heat exchangers, or working fluid(air) being supplied to the power cylinder, weather it be by another cylinder or outside source. Although in the alpha confi...

Hi all, I am from Pretoria South-Africa. I have 14 years experiance in speciality composites fabrication. I would like to build a Alpha engine that can produce real usable power.

Thanks for having me
