2. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

   Stirling marine engines have the advantage of using the ambient temperature water. Placing the cooling radiator section in seawater rather than ambient air allows for the radiator to be smaller. The engine's cooling water may be used directly or indirectly for heating and cooling purposes of the ship. The Stirling engine has potential for ...

   The eleventh of the class is the first one that is equipped with lithium-ion batteries without a Stirling engine. [16] This submarine may have a range from AIP of 6500 nautical miles and can remain submerged for 40 days. [6] The new Swedish Blekinge-class submarine has the Stirling AIP system as its main energy source. The submerged endurance ...

4. Stirling engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_engine

   A Stirling engine is a heat engine that is operated by the cyclic expansion and contraction of air or other gas (the working fluid) by exposing it to different temperatures, resulting in a net conversion of heat energy to mechanical work. [1] [2]

5. For the First Time Ever, China Tested a Stirling Engine in Space

   NASA and China are neck-and-neck in the race to put boots on the moon first. China’s Long March 5 launch vehicle rivals the U.S.’s SLS rocket.

6. Gotland-class submarine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotland-class_submarine

   The Gotland-class submarines of the Swedish Navy are modern diesel-electric submarines, which were designed and built by the Kockums shipyard in Sweden. They are the first submarines in the world to feature a Stirling engine air-independent propulsion (AIP) system, which extends their underwater endurance from a few days to weeks. [2]

7. Applications of the Stirling engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_the...

   A Stirling engine eliminates the need for water anywhere in the cycle. This would have advantages for nuclear installations in dry regions. United States government labs have developed a modern Stirling engine design known as the Stirling radioisotope generator for use in space exploration. It is designed to generate electricity for deep space ...
