Abstract:
Abstract The paper presents a potential idealization of the real Stirling cycle. This idealization is performed by modifying the piston movement corresponding to the ideal Stirling cycle. The focus is on the cycle thermodynamics with respect to the indicated efficiency and indicated power. A detailed 1-D simulation model of a Stirling engine is used as a tool for this assessment. The model includes real non-zero volumes of heater, regenerator, cooler and connecting pipe. The model is created in the GT Power commercial simulation software.

Abstract:
Conditions are isolated for thermodynamic processes in two Stirling cycle machines to be identical. The conditions form the basis for the concept of ‘functional similarity’. Using the similarity conditions the designer may scale the detailed gas circuit specification of a viable Stirling engine to a derivative design of different size, crankshaft speed, working fluid and pressure. The method complements, and provides an independent check of, the simulation approach to gas circuit design.

Abstract:
Stirling engine is a heat engine which is enclosed a fixed quantity of permanently gaseous fluid as the working fluid. The free-piston Stirling engine is noted for its high efficiency, quiet operation, long life without maintenance in ten years and the ease with which it can use almost any heat source. Stirling cycle analysis method has been successfully applied to improve the free-piston Stirling engine design by its step-by-step development on order. This study presents the development and application of Stirling cycle analysis method. Discussions about use of multi-dimension CFD software simulating free piston Stirling engine when there’s not any available experimental data for its design will provide. Since it needs less computing resource and time to get 1D simulation results with some accuracy, the application of multi-dimension CFD could be very helpful to improve accuracy of 1D result with the details of the different simplified model parameters used in 1D model. The research demonstrates that with the combination of high order Stirling cycle analysis method, the design of the free-piston Stirling engine with the aid of numerical method could be much more effectively and accurately.

Abstract:
This paper reports on the investigation of the simulation accuracy of a second order Stirling cycle simulation tool as developed by Urieli (2001) and improvements thereof against the known performance of the GPU-3 Stirling engine. The objective of this investigation is to establish a simulation tool to perform preliminary engine design and optimisation.The second order formulation under investigation simulates the engine based on the ideal adiabatic cycle, and parasitic losses are only accounted for afterwards. This approach differs from third order formulations that simulate the engine in a coupled manner incorporating non-idealities during cyclic simulation. While the second order approach is less accurate, it holds the advantage that the degradation of the ideal performance due to the various losses is more clearly defined and offers insight into improving engine performance. It is therefore particularly suitable for preliminary design of engines.Two methods to calculate the performance and efficiency of the data obtained from the ideal adiabatic cycle and the parasitic losses were applied, namely the method used by Urieli and a proposed alternative method. These two methods differ essentially in how the regenerator and pumping losses are accounted for.The overall accuracy of the simulations, especially using the proposed alternative method to calculate the different operational variables, proved to be satisfactory. Although significant inaccuracies occurred for some of the operational variables, the simulated trends in general followed the measurements and it is concluded that this second order Stirling cycle simulation tool using the proposed alternative method to calculate the different operational variables is suitable for preliminary engine design and optimisation.

Abstract:
Dual swash plate Stirling engine was designed to convert the waste energy of the flame to mechanical energy. A Stirling model has been developed and used to optimize the performance and design parameters of the engine. The Schmidt analysis is used to obtain the internal engine pressure for the adiabatic analysis. The objective of this paper is to provide fundamental information and present a detailed feasibility of dual the swash plate mechanism. Based on the theoretical model and numerical simulation, the Stirling power is calculated. The result shows that the swash plate mechanism could be applied in practice.

Abstract:
A mathematical model for the calculation of the Stirling cycle and of similar processes is presented. The model comprises a method to reproduce schematically any kind of process configuration, including free piston engines. The differential balance equations describing the process are solved by a stable integration algorithm. Heat transfer and pressure loss are calculated by using new correlations, which consider the special conditions of the periodic compression/expansion respectively of the oscillating flow. A comparison between experimental data achieved by means of a test apparatus and calculated data shows a good agreement.

Abstract:
Stirling cycle cryocoolers are used widely in military applications. The regenerator is the key element of Stirling cycle cryocoolers. It is known that performance of the regenerator directly affects the cryocooler performance. Therefore, any improvement on the regenerator will lead to a more efficient cryocooler. Thus, it is essential to have an idea about regenerator parameters and their effects on the system. In this study Stirling engine regenerator, which is constructed by wire mesh screens, is accepted as a porous medium. Using energy balance and continuity equation, matrix and fluid thermal equations are derived. Simplified versions of these equations are obtained for not only the ideal case, but also two other cases which take into account the effects of longitudinal conduction and the effects of regenerator wall. A computer code is developed in Matlab to solve these equations using finite difference method. The developed code is validated by using Sage. Afterwards, effects of all regenerator parameters on regenerator performance are investigated in detail and results are presented. To make this investigation easier, a graphical user interface is also built (in Matlab) and used.

Abstract:
In this dissertation the analysis of the Stirling engine is presented, this research topic falls within the category of thermal energy conversion. The research that was conducted is presented in three chapters of which the topics are: the effects of allocation of volume on engine performance, the GPU-3 (Ground Power Unit - developed by GM) Stirling engine analysis, and the optimisation of a 1000 cm³ Stirling engine with finite heat capacity rates at the source and the sink. The Stirling engine has many advantages over other heat engines, as it is extremely quiet, has multi-fuel capabilities and is highly efficient. There is also significant interest in using Stirling engines in low to medium temperature solar thermal applications, and for waste heat recovery. To develop high-performance engines that are also economically viable, advanced mathematical models that accurately predict performance and give insight into the different loss mechanisms are required. This work aims to use and adapt such a model to analyse the effects of different engine parameters and to show how such a model can be used for engine optimisation using the Implicit Filtering algorithm. In the various analyses that are presented, the dynamic second order adiabatic numerical model is used and is coupled to equations that describe the heat and mass transfer in the engine. The analysis shows that the allocation of volume has a significant effect on engine performance. It is shown that in high-temperature difference (HTD) engines, increasing dead-volume ratio increases efficiency and decreases specific work output. In the case of low-temperature difference (LTD) and medium-temperature difference (MTD) engines, there is an optimal dead-volume ratio that gives maximum specific work output. It was also found that there are optimal swept volume ratios and that the allocation of heat exchanger volume has a negligible effect on engine performance - so long as the dead-volume ratio is optimal. The second order model with irreversibilities included was used to perform an exergy analysis of the GPU-3 Stirling engine. This model compared well with experimental results and the results from other models found in the literature. The results of the study show the two different approaches in modelling the engine losses and the effect that the various engine parameters have on the GPU-3 power output and efficiency. The optimisation of the 1000 cm³ Stirling engine was performed using a model with finite heat capacity rates at the source and the sink, fixed number of heater and cooler tubes, and four different regenerator mesh types. The engine geometry was optimised for maximum work output using the implicit filtering algorithm, and the results show the dominant effect that the regenerator has on engine performance and the geometry that gives maximum work output. The critical insights obtained from this research are the importance of the dead-volume ratio in engine analysis, the merits of the novel Second law Stirling engine model, and the importance of regenerator mesh choice and geometry. The Implicit filtering algorithm is also shown to be a suitable choice of optimisation algorithm to use with Stirling engine mathematical models.

O presente trabalho estuda um motor de deslocamento positivo Stirling rotativo. Dois modelos de simulação para este motor Stirling rotativo são desenvolvidos. O primeiro modelo utiliza o método isotérmico, mediante o qual a câmara de expansão/compressão do motor está à mesma temperatura do reservatório térmico com que troca calor. O segundo modelo utiliza o método de volumes de controle, no qual o motor é dividido em cinco volumes de controle: as câmaras de expansão e compressão, o aquecedor, o resfriador e o compartimento rotativo. Para cada volume de controle aplicam-se as equações de conservação de massa e energia e de equações de estado do gás. O sistema de equações diferenciais ordinárias resultantes do segundo modelo, é integrado, permitindo obter-se a variação no ângulo do eixo para todas as variáveis termodinâmicas do motor (pressão, temperatura, etc.). Dadas as condições de operação e a geometria do motor rotativo em estudo, os modelos preveem resultados globais e transientes ângulo a ângulo. Os resultados dos modelos são confrontados com resultados teóricos disponíveis na literatura.
The present work studies a positive displacement rotary Stirling engine. Two simulation models for this rotary Stirling engine are developed. The first model applies the isothermal method, in which the gas at the engine expansion / compression chamber has the same temperatures of the thermal reservoir. The second model uses the control volume method, in which the engine is divided into five control volumes: the expansion and compression chambers, the heater, the chiller and the rotary chamber. For each control volume the equations of conservation of mass and energy and the equation of state, are applied. The system of ordinary differential equations resulting from the second model is integrated allowing to obtain the variation in the axis angle for all thermodynamic variables of the motor (pressure, temperature, etc.). Given the operating conditions and geometry of the rotating motor under study, the models provide global and transient results from angle to angle. Results from two models are confronted with theoretical results available in the literature.

Abstract:
Parallelization of logic simulation on register-transfer and gate level is a promising way to accelerate extremely time extensive system simulation processes for whole processor structures. In this report parallel simulation realized by means of the functional simulator parallel- TEXSIM based on the clock-cycle algorithm is considered. Within a corresponding simulation, several simulator instances co-operate over a loosely-coupled processor system, each instance simulating a part of a synchronous hardware design. Therefore, in preparation of parallel simulation, partitioning of hardware models is necessary, which is essentially determining e±ciency of the following simulation. A framework of formal concepts for an abstract description of parallel cycle simulation is developed. This provides the basis for partition valuation within partitioning algorithms. Starting from the definition of a Structural Hardware Model as special bipartite graph Sequential Cycle Simulation is introduced as sequence of actions. Following a cone-based partitioning approach a Parallel Structural Hardware Model is defined as set of Structural Hardware Models. Furthermore, a model of parallel computation called Communicating Processors is introduced which is closely related to the well known LogP Model. Together with the preceding concepts it represents the basis for determining Parallel Cycle Simulation as sequence of action sets.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to design and manufacture an experimentally testable free-piston Stirling engine (FPSE), including a linear electric generator; to develop and validate a theoretical simulation model; to identify problem areas pertaining to its manufacture; and finally to assess the work undertaken, to lay out the groundwork for the future development of a 3 kWe FPSE suitable for incorporation in a solar Stirling dish power generator. A redesigned version of the Beale B- 10B demonstrator engine was manufactured to overcome design diffculties and to simplify testing. The design made use of an electric generator designed at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Stellenbosch University. Experimental measurements included piston and displacer motions, hot side and cold side temperatures, working space pressure, electric generator output, as well as heat rejection via a water jacket. Experimental measurements were taken prior to and subsequent to the addition of the electric generator. Indicated power was calculated as 0,659 W at a frequency of 10,99 Hz prior to the addition of the electric generator. The addition of the electric generator was unsuccessful since it was not well matched with the engine. The indicated power calculated was between 0,138 W and 0,144 W for different loads on the electric generator, while the electrical output power ranged from 1,23 mWe to 1,79 mWe. The addition of the electric generator produced non-continuous motion caused by magnetic forces instead of engine pressure variations. The major manufacturing diffculty was the attachment of magnets for the electric generator, but this was overcome with the manufacture of a special assembly jig. The theoretical simulation model was a combination of a third-order and dynamic analysis. Working space values were solved by the application of the conservation of mass, momentum and energy equations for a one-dimensional discretised model of the engine, while the motion of the piston and displacer was determined by applying the equations of motion. The majority of experimental measurements were predicted more accurately when higher heat transfer coeficients were used between the working space and wall temperatures. The theoretical simulation model was used to gain insight into the effect of input parameters on engine operation. The displacer rod diameter was shown to have implications on output power and stability, while it was shown that there is a natural tendency to deliver constant output power at a near-constant frequency over a range of piston loads for an FPSE. It was also shown that the design of an FPSE is complex and that the design of all components should be done in parallel. The control of an FPSE was seen to be both a necessity and can be used to exploit the advantages of the uncoupled nature of an FPSE.
AFRIKKANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om 'n eksperimentele toetsbare vrye-werksuier Stirling enjin te vervaardiging, wat 'n lineêre elektriese kragopwekker insluit; om 'n teoretiese simulasie model te ontwikkel en te yk; om vervaardiging probleme te identi seer; en om die ondernemende werk te assesseer om 'n fondasie te lê vir die toekomstige ontwikkeling van 'n 3 kWe vrye-werksuier Stirling enjin wat by 'n Stirling sonskottel ingelyf kan word. 'n Herontwerpte weergawe van die Beale B-10B demonstrasie enjin was vervaardig om ontwerp probleme te bowe te kom en om die toets daarvan te vereenvoudig. Die ontwerp het gebruik gemaak van 'n elektriese kragopwekker wat by die Departement Elektriese en Elektroniese Ingenieurswese aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch ontwerp is. Eksperimentele metings het die werksuier en verplaser bewegings ingesluit, sowel as die warm kant en koue kant temperature, die werkruimte druk, die elektriese uitset van die kragopwekker, sowel as die hitteuitruiling wat met 'n water verkoelingskringloop gepaard gaan. Eksperimentele metings was geneem voor en na die byvoeging van die elektriese kragopwekker. Kraglewering was bereken op 0,659 W teen 'n frekwensie van 10,99 Hz voordat die elektriese kragopwekker bygevoeg is. Die byvoeging van die elektriese kragopwekker was onsuksesvol omdat die nie gepas was vir die enjin nie. Die kraglewering is bereken op vlakke wat gewissel het tussen 0,138 W en 0,144 W vir die verskillende belastings op die elektriese kragopwekker, terwyl die elektriese uitset gewissel het tussen 1,23 mWe en 1,79 mWe. Die byvoeging van die elektriese kragopwekker het 'n nie-aaneenlopende beweging veroorsaak weens die magnetiese kragte wat dit beinvloed het in plaas van enjindruk variasies. Die belangrikste ontwerpuitdagings was die ontwerp van 'n werksuier en verplaser wat 'n klein toleransie passing kon handhaaf om sodoende 'n seël te verseker terwyl dit aan temperatuur variasies blootgestel was. Die grootste vervaardigingsprobleem was die aanheg van magnete vir die elektriese kragopwekker, maar dit is te bowe gekom deur 'n spesiale voeg te vervaardig. Die teoretiese simulasie model was 'n kombinasie van 'n derde-orde en 'n dinamiese analise. Werkruimte waardes was opgelos deur die toepassing van die behoud van massa, momentum en energie vergelykings vir 'n een-dimensionele gediskretiseerde model van die enjin, terwyl die beweging van die werksuier en verplaser bepaal was deur die toepassing van die bewegingvergelykings. Die meerderheid van die eksperimentele metings was meer akkuraat voorspel wanneer hoër warmteoordrag koë siënte tussen die werkruimte en muurtemperature gebruik was. Die teoretiese simulasie model was gebruik om insig in terme van die e ek van invoer veranderlikes op die enjin gedrag te toon. Daar was getoon dat die verplaserstaaf diameter implikasies het op kragoplewering en stabiliteit, terwyl die natuurlike tendens van 'n vrye-werksuier Stirling enjin gewys was om 'n konstante kraguitvoer te lewer op 'n naby-konstante frekwensie oor 'n reeks werksuier laste. Daar was ook gewys dat die ontwerp van 'n vryewerksuier Stirling enjin kompleks is en dat die ontwerp van alle komponente in parallel gedoen moet word. Die beheer van 'n vrye-werksuier Stirling enjin was gewys om beide noodsaaklik te wees, sowel as gebruik kan word om die unieke voordele van 'n vrye-werksuier Stirling enjin se ongekoppelde natuur te ontgin.

Abstract:
A project has been underway at the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) to investigate the feasibility of a combined Otto and Stirling cycle power plant in which a Stirling cycle engine would serve as a bottoming cycle for a stationary Otto cycle engine. This type of combined cycle plant is considered to have good potential for industrial use. This paper describes work by DIT and collaborators to validate a computer simulation model of the combined cycle plant. In investigating the feasibility of the type of combined cycle that is proposed there are a range of practical realities to be faced and addressed. Reliable performance data for the component engines are required over a wide range of operating conditions, but there are practical difficulties in accessing such data. A simulation model is required that is sufficiently detailed to represent all important performance aspects and that is capable of being validated. Thermodynamicists currently employ a diverse range of modeling, analysis and optimization techniques for the component engines and the combined cycle. These techniques include traditional component and process simulation, exergy analysis, entropy generation minimization, exergoeconomics, finite time thermodynamics and finite dimensional optimization thermodynamics methodology (FDOT). In the context outlined, the purpose of the present paper is to come up with a practical validation of a practical computer simulation model of the proposed combined Otto and Stirling Cycle Power Plant.

Abstract:
This paper describes design and principles of operation of a novel rotary type Stirling cycle machines based on rotary positive displacement mechanisms such as twin-screw, gate rotor screw, scroll, and conical screw compressors and expanders. When these mechanisms are used as separate expanding or compressing machines, the flow of the gas is one-directional with volumes of chambers varying in accordance with a saw-tooth type function. The proposed design solution combines at least two units of gas-coupled compressor and expander arrangements with a required shift in the shaft angle. Every unit has a series of gas channels for timing the connection of its compressor and expander parts. Units are connected to each other via a set of heat exchangers, which are conventional for Stirling cycle machines: recuperative cooling and warm heat exchangers with a regenerator, built between them. The operational capability is demonstrated using three-dimensional CFD simulations. Computational results demonstrate reciprocating flow of the gas between units, as in conventional Stirling machines, and functioning of the proposed design as a multi-cylinder, double acting Stirling machine. The suggested design makes it possible to achieve full dynamic balancing, especially in the case of twin-screw and gate rotor mechanisms, due to the rotation of screws around their axes. It also eliminates a number of problems, which are specific to Stirling machines with reciprocating pistons and their kinematic drive mechanisms.

Abstract:
A three-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD simulation is conducted on a Stirling engine. The temperature in the engine spaces and the temperature profile along the regenerator are graphically presented, along with the density and the gas flow patterns in selected parts of the engine. The maximum value of pressure drop is slightly more than 6% of the mean engine pressure at the same instance. The maximum loss due to pressure drop is equal to 5 kW. In addition, the CFD results are compared to those coming from a one-dimensional model. The comparison includes data regarding the pressure of the gas during the engine cycle, the gas mass flow-rate in all the engine spaces, the respective points of flow reversal and the gas pressure drop. Finally, the net work output and efficiency of the engine are calculated. The net work output of the engine is equal to 6.7 kW and the engine’s efficiency is equal to 51%. The possible sources of further losses are discussed.

Abstract:
Distributed generation emerged as a new philosophy for electricity generation in our time, since then, it has been possible to see new concepts of technology following the idea of energy production away from the main producers or in remote areas, mainly in the countryside. Distributed generation technologies include small gas turbine engines, internal combustion reciprocating engines, photovoltaic panels, fuel cells, solar thermal conversion and Stirling engines using fossil and biofuels. Among them, the small gas turbine engine that generates electricity and heat working with fossil or renewable fuels is a promising technology for the near future. The aim of this work is the cycle analysis and preliminary compressor design of a 600kW simple cycle gas turbine engine that has been developed in Brazil. The 600kW engine will be the first prototype of its class in Brazil. A cycle performance calculation for different pressure ratios and turbine inlet temperature was carried out for fixed component efficiencies and losses. A selection of the design point was discussed and compared with the existing commercial engines of the same class. A compressor design point calculation was carried out with a mean line calculation CODE developed in FORTAN language. A CFD simulation was used for flow field analyses and design refinement.

Abstract:
Abstract The ideal Stirling working cycle has the maximum obtainable efficiency defined by Carnot efficiency, and highly efficient Stirling engines can therefore be built, if designed properly. To analyse the power output and the efficiency of a Stirling engine, numerical simulation programs (NSP) have been developed, which solve the thermodynamic equations. In order to find optimum values of design variables, numerical optimization techniques can be used (Bartczak and Carlsen, 1991). To describe the engine realistically, it is necessary to consider several tens of design variables. As even a single call for NSP requires considerable computing time, it would be too time consuming to use conventional optimization techniques, which require a very large number of calls for NSP. Furthermore, objective and constraint functions of the optimization problem present some level of noise, i.e. can only be estimated with a finite accuracy. To cope with these problems, the multipoint explicit approximation technique is used.

Abstract:
In the present work, a three dimensional (3D) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis is applied to a designed small compact regenerator with specific porosity and wire diameter. The regenerator was studied as a part of a Stirling Engine designed in a simple way. The gas temperature along the regenerator followed an approximately linear profile, while the metal temperature showed a small deviation during the engine cycle. The heat transfer coefficient between the gas and the matrix of the regenerator, along with the associate heat transferred were also derived. The heat exchanged in the regenerator is significantly higher to the respective heat in the engine’s heater and cooler. Additionally, the pressure drop and the related energy dissipation are studied. Their variation is largely dependent on both mass flow-rate and working gas velocity. The friction factor coefficient for the designed regenerator is correlated with Reynolds number and an equation of two variables is derived. Finally, the results of the CFD simulation are compared to those produced by a one-dimensional numerical model. These results include gas mass, mass flow-rate and Reynolds number, as well as the heat transferred between the gas and the regenerator matrix. Except for the case of the exchanged heat, the deviation between the two approaches is very small.
