Answer / rakesh nagdev

A Stirling engine is a device that converts heat energy
into mechanical power by alternately compressing and
expanding a fixed quantity of air or other gas (the working
fluid) at different temperatures.

Answer / subhrajyoti

Stirling engine works on the basis of a thermodynamic cycle
consisting of two constant volume processes and two
isothermal processes..

Answer / alpha

its va reciprocating engine with a toggle lever like
mechanism..... one end is kept coldn the other is kept
hot.... high efficiency!!

Answer / kishore

A Stirling engine is a heat engine that operates by cyclic
compression and expansion of air or other gas, the working
fluid, at different temperature levels such that there is a
net conversion of heat energy to mechanical work..

Answer / karthick

stirling cycle consists of two isothermal and two isochoric
process.by effective regeneration in stirling cycle it is
possible to achieve very close efficiency to carnot cycle

Answer / suryamack

Stirling engine is known for its silent opertion B'coz its
not an IC engine (external combustion engine).

Answer / prbalaji

Air expands on cooling and contracts on cooling this is the
basic principle of it.one end is kept hot and the other
cold.the efficiency depends on the diff in temperature.

Answer / karthick

the engine which employs stirling cycle.
the stirling cycle consists of two isothermal and two
constant pressure cycles

In order to ensure constant pressure and constant flow rate of compressed air what should we put between the compressor and end user?
