Stirling Cycle Engine Diagram. The hot air engine first so referred to by the rev. The stirling cycles p v diagram is shown in fig.
Explanation of the diagram above the thermodynamics of the idealized stirling engine cycle above are easy to explain. Its movement is smoothed out by a flywheel connected to the crankshaft 1011. If we now let the theoretically stirling engine work in the double acting cycle its work process can be shown in the ts diagram in the image above.
The ideal stirling cycle state 1 to 2 at state 1 the working fluid is at a maximum volume minimum temperature and minimum pressure.
If we now let the theoretically stirling engine work in the double acting cycle its work process can be shown in the ts diagram in the image above. Constant volume process internal heat transfer from the working fluid to regenerator and therefore this process is also termed as constant volume regeneration process. Explanation of the diagram above the thermodynamics of the idealized stirling engine cycle above are easy to explain. The stirling cycle can be visualized using a double effect piston and cylinder that includes a porous regenerator matrix placed inside the cylinder.
