Water Pump Sterling Engine

Post by Trevor »

Have finalised my water pump Sterling Engine.
As this is my first video I have tried to put on the Forum, I just hope it works.
The piston is 38mm with a 38mm Stroke and has a lot of power with a small meths burner underneath.

Well!! That didn't work - So I have put up a picture instead.

The engine works well Thanh. I thought that I would try and put the video up on the forum, but it doesn't work due to the high KB's.
The actual pump works probably a bit too fast, however, it pumps one hell of a lot of water.
For a small amount of heat it works better than I predicted - Will be starting on my Large LTD engine in a few weeks using solar heated water for the heating chamber.
