Stirling college project advice

Post by Dub222 »

Hi, I'm currently carrying out a college project building a stirling engine.

I need confirmation and inspiration on the following...

I need to build a stirling engine so looking at all the types i chose a lamina flow single cylinder, is this a stirling engine??? as it only has one cylinder and piston no displacer, which type does it fall under? i thought Beta type.

I need to demonstrate the principles of momentum and efficiency what would you suggest i do to help demostrate these?

all help would be most appreciated i will post up pics of the build...

regrads
