Thermoacoustic Stirling Engines
Abstract:
Sound waves in thermoacoustic engines and refrigerators can replace the pistons and cranks that are typically built into such machinery. Over the past two decades, physicists and engineers have been working on a class of heat engines and compression-driven refrigerators that use no oscillating pistons, oil seals or lubricants. These so-called thermoacoustic devices take advantage of sound waves reverberating within them to convert a temperature differential into mecha ....etc

In 1987 an international group of scientists and Government Officials established the Montreal protocol, an agreement to control the use and release of CFC and to schedule a time frame for eliminating their production. This agreement is a historic step in the on going process of building consensus regarding environmental impact of CFC. Both the Montreal protocol and provisions for 1990 clean Air Act specify schedules for phasing out CFC production by year 2000. This forced a new wave of research and development in refrigeration technologies. Ex ....etc

Thermoacoustic Refrigeration



How it works

Moving coil Loudspeaker
Inside 2 magnets with metal coil between them, current is induced causing coil to move
Creates sound waves up to 200 dB!
Resonator—where gas cooling and compression take place
Uses inert gas, commonly Helium
Stack
Series of small parallel channels through which pressure and velocity of waves change
In between the heat exchangers
Heat Exchangers
Hot heat exchanger to remove exce ....etc
