Breakthrough in Thermoacoustic Sterling Engine
I love Sterling engines! I think they are way underused in daily life for reasons I won't explain here. But Chinese scientists have taken the concept to a new level and now folks are talking about using Stirling engines in space propulsion. Over 100 kW output! (Huge for this type of engine.). From the YouTube channel "Scientists from China have achieved a breakthrough in engine development: They have developed a so-called thermoacoustic Stirling engine. It is said to be extremely quiet and practically wear-free. The technology behind it has been known for some time. However, the new development is probably significantly more powerful than all previous engines of this type. And this could mean major progress for space travel and military technology. Watch this video to find out what the thermoacoustic Stirling engine is all about, why it could be the future of space travel and why Stirling engines have not yet caught on!"
I found this very interesting and I hope you will to.
Enjoy!
