A new set of governing equations is derived for the dynamic analysis of the Free-Piston Stirling Engines(EPSE). Equations from the ideal adiabatic model for the thermodynamic analysis of the working fluid are incoporated with the equations of motion for the moving masses of the system, resulting in a set of nonlinear differential equations. The coupled set of equations are numerically integrated with proper intial conditions to obtain a steady state response of the engine. The proposed method is compared with the conventional method of analyzing EPSE based mainly on the ideal isothermal model. The results clearly shows the limitationsl of the conventional methods and the relative advantages of the method proposed in the present study.

The effects of applying the micro CHP system to the domestic sector in Korea were investigated using annual cooling and heating demand data. Four prime movers, micro gas turbine, PEMFC, gas engine and Stirling engine, were compared for three operational modes. Two way buy-back was assumed for both electricity and heat. The Stirling engine gave the lowest $CO_2$ emission per energy for 300kWh monthly electricity production. However, PEMFC became more effective when considering PURPA criteria. PEMFC generated the least greenhouse gas with higher electrical efficiency for cooling. The Stirling engine, however, became competitive for heating with higher total efficiency.

Cryogenic refrigerator system is necessary for cooling the superconducting rotor. Among the various cryogenic refrigerator systems, on-board hybrid pulse tube cryocooler is designed for cooling the superconducting rotor. Hybrid pulse tube cryocooler is composed of pulse tube cryocooler and Stirling cryocooler. This Stirling cryocooler precools the middle point of regenerator to obtain lower temperature at cold part of pulse tube cryocooler. In this paper, only Stirling cryocooler is on-boarded then rotated by motor for various rotating speeds and heat loads at cold part of Stilting cryocooler. Through this experiment the feasibility of the on-board cryocooler is investigated.

This paper describes a passive safety injection system with free piston Stirling pump working withabundant decay heat in the nuclear reactor during the hypothetical accident. The water column in the tube assembly connected from the hot chamber to the cold chamber in the pump oscillates periodically due to thermal volume changes of non-condensable gas in each chamber. The oscillating pressure in the water column is converted into the pumping power with a suction-and-bleed type valve assembly. In this paper a dynamic model describing the frequency of oscillation and pumping pressure is developed. It was found that the pumping pressure is a function of the temperature difference between the chambers. Also, the frequency oscillation depends on the length of the tube with water column.

본 연구에서는 원관외벽에 일정 열유속이 가해지는 스터링 사이클용 가열기 튜브내부로 열전달이 일어나는 경우 원관내부의 유체온도의 시간적 변화를 측정하여 왕복유동에서의 열전달 특성을 규명하고자 하였다. 본 실험에서 사용한 물리적 모델 을 Fig.1에 나타내었으며, 스터링기기에서와 같이 원관의 양끝에서 2개의 피스톤이 90˚의 위상차를 가지면서 왕복운동하도록 설정하였다. 이와같은 왕복유동에서 일정 열유속이 주어진 경우 진동수, 체적 치환비, 원관내부의 평균압력이 온도 및 열전달 특성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 규명하였다. 그리고 원관내부 작동 유체의 영향을 규명하기 위해 스터링기기에서 작동유체로 많이 사용되는 헬륨 뿐아니라 공기도 사용 하여 그 결과를 비교하였다.

KIER has been running a demonstration project for 10kWe solar thermal power generation. the project is to build and operate the first solar thermal power generation system in Korea. For concentrating solar thermal energy $40m^2$ dish type concentrator was adapted and a stirling engine is going to be integrated to the system for power production. At the moment building the dish concentrator including mirror and sun tracking system was completed and it's performance are being closely evaluated. This paper will introduce some detailed designs and construction procedures which we have experienced so far.

To improve economic of solar power generation, stirling engine is required continuous operation and the receiver has to be provided with an additional combustion system. The hybrid receiver with a specially adapted combustion system is possible to 24 hr/day operation by solar and gas-fired. The inner cavity and external wall serve as absorber surfaces using collected irradiation and heat transfer surfaces for the gas heat flow, respectively. The hybrid receiver was designed and fabricated for the dish/stirling system. The analytical method for pridicting natural convective heat loss from receiver is used. The Koenig and Marvin model is used to estimate convection heat loss and heat transfer coefficiency.

본 연구에서는 1 kW급 가정용 열병합 시스템의 원동기로 설계된 스털링 엔진의 고온 열교환기에 대하여 Fin 길이, 간격, 각도 등을 조정한 새로운 형상 및 기존 형상에 대하여 수치해석을 수행하여 형상 개선에 따른 성능 향상을 확인하였다. 형상을 개선하는 과정에서 고려하지 않았던 공기예열기를 포함하여 수치해석을 수행한 결과 실린더 헤드 부분에서 음의 열유속이 발생하는 현상이 관찰되었다. 배가스 온도 및 연소실 벽면 온도를 분석하여 이 현상을 규명하였다. 다음으로 이상적인 사이클을 가정하여 형상 개선에 의한 열전달량 증가가 열역학적 사이클 및 시스템 성능에 미치는 영향을 예측하였다.

Conceptual design of scroll expander and scroll compressor for 10kW-class Stirling engine utilizing solar energy as heat source has been carried out to estimate the applicability of scroll mechanism for Stirling cycle. CO2 was chosen as working fluid, since it has lower expansion index and higher density among probably usable gases. Gas temperature at the expander inlet was set at $700^{\circ}C$, and that at the compressor inlet was at $40^{\circ}C$. System efficiency reached maximum at the pressure ratio of about 2.5, and the peak efficiency increased with increasing high side pressure. Due to safety concern, the pressure condition of 6 MPa/2.5 MPa was chosen as design condition. Orbiting scroll members for the expander and compressor were designed to have double-sided structure in order to reduce the overall scroll size and to cancel out the axial gas forces acting on the orbiting scroll base plate. By parametric study on the scroll profile, smaller possible size for the scroll members was obtained. With the shaft speed of 3600rpm, the shaft output of the designed scroll expander was calculated to be 45.4kW, while input power for the scroll compressor was 34.5kW, yielding 10.9kW for the output power of the Stirling engine. System efficiency was estimated to be about 7.3%, and overall efficiencies of the scroll expander and compressor were around 84.1% and 88.3%, respectively.

In this paper. the lumped electrical circuit approach of mass/spring system is used to model the mechanical aspects according to the frequency. Therefore, the mass/spring system can be dealt with here and linked with the equivalent circuit of electric linear oscillatory actuator(LOA). Analysis models are double-coil type linear compressor for stirling refrigerator. The compressor consists of the moving coil LOA, piston, and spring. The electro-mechanical system with mass and spring can be represented using the lumped electrical circuit. We present the system impedance and dynamics of moving coil linear compressor.
