2. Stirling engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_engine

   While the invention of the basic free piston Stirling engine is generally attributed to Beale, independent inventions of similar types of engines were made by E.H. Cooke-Yarborough and C. West at the Harwell Laboratories of the UK AERE. [60] G.M. Benson also made important early contributions and patented many novel free-piston configurations ...

   He is the maker of small Stirling Engines, "flame eater", steam engines and other types of small practical heat engines. Ridders gives free plans for building his motors and offers advice with his experience in various places on the web.

4. Rhombic drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_drive

   It was originally developed around 1900 for the twin-cylinder Lanchester car engine where it allowed perfect balancing of the inertial forces on both pistons. A current example of its use is on beta type-Stirling engines; the drive's complexity and tight tolerances, causing a high cost of manufacture, is a hurdle for the widespread usage of this drive.

5. Applications of the Stirling engine - Wikipedia

   A free-piston variant of the Stirling engine can be built, which can be completely hermetically sealed, reducing friction losses and completely eliminating refrigerant leakage. For example, a free-piston Stirling cooler (FPSC) can convert an electrical energy input into a practical heat pump effect, used for high-efficiency portable ...

7. Fluidyne engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidyne_engine

   A concentric-cylinder Fluidyne pumping engine. Topologically equivalent to a U-tube design. A Fluidyne engine is an alpha or gamma type Stirling engine with one or more liquid pistons. It contains a working gas (often air), and either two liquid pistons or one liquid piston and a displacer. [1] The engine was invented in 1969. [2]

9. Stirling cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_cycle

   The Stirling cycle is a thermodynamic cycle that describes the general class of Stirling devices. This includes the original Stirling engine that was invented, developed and patented in 1816 by Robert Stirling with help from his brother, an engineer .
