    The Stirling engine operates through the compression and expansion of a gas, usually air. It uses two temperature levels to convert thermal energy to mechanical energy. The compressed gas pushes a piston connected to a crankshaft, converting linear motion to rotation. It is composed of a hot zone to deliver heat, a cold zone to extract heat, a regenerator to store heat, a piston to do work, a displacer to move gas between zones, and a flywheel to stabilize rotation. The Stirling engine can achieve near-maximum theoretical efficiency and can run on various heat sources, making it well-suited for specialized applications.

    STARLING ENGINE

    STUDENTS NAME: Luís Fernando Parada Pérez 18151434


    PROFESSOR: MC Israel de Jesus Gómez
    DATE: 10-SEPTEMBER-2021
    WHAT IS THE STARLING ENGINE ?
    The Stirling engine is a heat engine that operates by pressure and cyclic expansion of air or other
    gas; the well-known working fluid; at temperature levels such that a deep conversion of heat
    energy to mechanical energy occurs.

    It is important to note that the Stirling engine is the only one capable of approximating the
    theoretical maximum performance known as Carnot performance. For this reason as far as
    thermal engine performance is concerned, it is the ideal option

    This class of engines have a high efficiency, when compared to steam engines, and a wide ease
    to be applied to any source that generates heat.

    However, even though it has more power it is only used in some specialized applications.
    FUNDAMENTALS
    Two levels of temperature are used which causes there to be a net conversion of
    thermal energy into mechanical energy (mechanical work).

    The compressed gas exerts pressure on a piston. The piston is connected to a


    crankshaft axis that allows to convert the linear movement of the piston inside
    the cylinder into a rotational movement of an axis.
    PRINCIPAL FUNCTION
    • Works with cyclic compression and cyclic expansion of the working
    fluid at different temperature levels

    • It works through a cycle of compression and expansion of a gas.

    • Works in a thermodynamically closed regenerative cycle


    PARTS THAT COMPOSE
    IT
    1. Hot zone:
    This is the part of the engine where heat is delivered, and,
    therefore, will be subjected to high temperatures (around 800ºC)

    2. Cold zone:
    In this part, heat is extracted from the engine. Heat extraction
    can be performed by free or forced convection

    3.Regenerative:
    It is a piece of material that can store heat while allowing air to
    pass around it.
    4. Piston:
    This part is the one that performs the motor work and the one
    connected to the movement transformation mechanism

    5. Displacer:
    This part is responsible for moving the air from one area to
    another. This part must be able to generate a temperature
    gradient between the hot zone and the cold zone.

    6. The steering wheel:


    This is the part that delivers in the emergency room to the cycle
    so that the compression of the working fluid occurs and also helps
    to keep the rotation of the engine stable.
    CONCLUSION
    We have learned the operation of the Stirling engine and the various
    applications they can have, what it meant for the development of the
    different combustion engines until reaching our present and the different
    methods or use that were implemented thanks to the Stirling engine.
