Engineers at the University of California, Davis, have invented a device that can generate mechanical power at night by ...

China has built the most powerful thermoacoustic Stirling generator. The prototype delivered a groundbreaking 102 kilowatts of power from a heat source of 530 degrees Celsius (986 Fahrenheit). This is ...

This engine won't be fueling interstellar missions, but still finds an unexpected way to use deep space energy to generate ...

Stirling engines, with their high conversion efficiency and excellent adaptability to various heat sources, show significant promise in the nuclear energy sector. This is particularly true for ...

Have you ever imagined a bike powered not by gasoline or electricity, but by the simple act of heating and cooling air? It might sound like something out of a science fiction novel, but the concept is ...

In 1816, engineer Robert Stirling invented his proprietary Stirling engine, an automatic power source operated by ambient heat rather than direct fuel sources like an internal combustion engine. It ...

Over on his YouTube channel [Tom Stanton] shows us how to build a Stirling Engine for a bike. A Stirling Engine is a heat engine, powered by the expansion and contraction of a working fluid (such as ...
