A Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that runs on the expansion and contraction of gas within a sealed system. In this video, we break down how it works, from heating and cooling cycles ...

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 ...

E-bikes and motorcycles are great, but what if there were another way to get moving? What if there were a motor that didn't require the combustion of Odin's juice to get moving? Well, there are plenty ...

Are you sitting comfortably? Good. Then I’ll begin. Once upon a time in the mid-1950s, in a large engineering complex somewhere in the Midwest, a supervisor had a very large floor area to cover. To ...

Beyond plans to return astronauts to the moon for the first time since the Apollo Era, NASA and other space agencies have their sights trained on Mars, Venus, and other deep-space destinations. To ...

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 ...

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 ...

A hot air or Stirling engine runs without carburetors, injectors, cams, valves, timing chains, spark plugs, or anything. It’s incredibly simple and can even be emissions negative, running on waste ...

UK scientists have proposed a way to combine photovoltaic-thermal energy with Stirling engines and battery storage in residential buildings. Despite the high upfront costs, they said the ...

China has revealed what it claims to be the world's inaugural microwave weapon cooled by a Stirling engine. This innovative high-power microwave (HPM) weapon, reportedly powered by four Stirling ...
