Request for Info - SunPulse engine

[drakester]

Hi there, new guy here.
I have been looking for current info or leads to a large (1-2kW) Stirling engine called the SunPulse.
Searching here could use some improvement - "big Stirling engine" returns as using too common words (!)
however in the post *called* "Big Stirling Engine"

http://stirlingengineforum.com/viewtopi ... 8&start=15

there is a video link to the engine I am interested in. That's how I found this forum. I have attached a pdf from Sunvention which states that prototypes are done and they are looking for manufacturers. I can't find any other info more current than 1-2 years old.

I would appreciate any new info, contacts, an email address that doesn't bounce, or a way that I can keep track of this technology.

Keywords are SunPulse, Sunvention, bsrsolar.com, Solar Power Village, and Dr Jürgen Kleinwächter

Thanks, and I will now start exploring the forum. I am happy to talk about why this particular thing is so interesting to me.

Cheers, -=Drakester=-

[answering my own post]
Apparently, Herr Docktor Kleinwachter is indeed still out there, having
abandoned his research organ and teamed up with a manufacturer.

Sketchy info on a 150 and 500watt LTD Stirling engines, for pumps and
generators. He still is lousy at naming things in ways that make
searching for them problematic, but is busy with documentation.....

Tamera.org has some interesting docs and reference papers on solar stuff.

Thanks for sharing Drakester..
I find the sunpulse engine very interesting myself, it would be nice to get a look inside and see their layout
But have yet to find any images or drawings with any significant details, or a worded description that's of any real use to me.
They're probably trying their best to keep too much design information from getting out.
