1 Stirling Cycle and Engines
Bryan Tibbetts California State University, Sacramento Fall 2012

2 Reverend Dr. Robert Stirling
Born: October 25, 1790 Died: June 6, 1878 Studied divinity at the University of Glasgow and the University of Edinburgh. Became a minister of the Church of Scotland. Obtained a patent for his “Heat Economiser” in 1816. “Heat Economiser” now called the regenerator. Built first practical engine in 1818 used to pump water out of a quarry. The thermodynamic cycle driving Stirling’s engine was not completely understood until the work of Sadi Carnot ( ) and was named the Stirling Cycle.

3 Ideal Stirling Cycle 1  2: Isometric heat addition 2
Stirling Cycle P-V Diagram 1  2: Isometric heat addition P 2 2  3: Isothermal expansion T = const QR Qin 3  4: Isometric heat rejection 3 4  1: Isothermal compression 1 QR Qout T = const 4 Cycle is reversible, and so can be mechanically powered to operate as a heat pump for cooling. V

8 Thermodynamic Optimization of a Stirling Engine
Authors: M.C. Campos, J.V.C. Vargas, J.C. Ordonez Model based on Ford-Philips engine

9 Thermodynamic Optimization of a Stirling Engine
Authors: M.C. Campos, J.V.C. Vargas, J.C. Ordonez Dimensionless Equations Describing System Solved numerically using an adaptive time step fourth-fifth order Runge-Kutta method

10 Thermodynamic Optimization of a Stirling Engine
Authors: M.C. Campos, J.V.C. Vargas, J.C. Ordonez Optimized Efficiency and Work Plot Two-way maximized system efficiency (ηmax,max) based on optimization of two system characteristic parameters, φ and y. φ is the ratio of the swept expansion volume over the total swept volume. y is the ratio of the hot side heat transfer area over the total heat transfer area.

11 Finite Time Thermodynamic Evaluation of Endoreversible Stirling Heat Engine at Maximum Power Conditions Author: Iskander Tlili Finite Time Thermodynamic analysis accounts for a finite temperature difference between the hot and cold sources and the working fluid of the engine (required for heat transfer to occur) and the finite amount of heat transferred in a finite time period per process.

12 Finite Time Thermodynamic Evaluation of Endoreversible Stirling Heat Engine at Maximum Power Conditions Author: Iskander Tlili Regenerator effectiveness only effects Thermal Efficiency Hot and cold side heat exchanger effectiveness only effects maximum power output

13 Finite Time Thermodynamic Evaluation of Endoreversible Stirling Heat Engine at Maximum Power Conditions Author: Iskander Tlili Temperatures of the external hot and cold source fluids effect both the thermal efficiency and maximum power output

Authors: M. Kuosa, K. Saari, A. Kankkunen, T.-M. Tveit Problem Approached No correlations existed for calculating heat transfer coefficient and friction factor in oscillating flow Annular Effect occurs in oscillating flow in a pipe, which is the maximum flow velocity occurs near the wall instead of the center of the pipe Fluid flow in a Stirling engine is comprised of laminar, transitional, and turbulent flows during every cycle Pressure losses for various geometries were also analyzed:
