6 FAQs about [Solar piston generator]
How does a power piston generator work?
The electric output of the power piston generator is connected to a resistive load. The voltage and current of the load are moni- tored as well. Therefore, the energy-balance approach may be implemented here to assess the generated power.
How does a power piston work?
The power piston sits at an interface between the internal working uid and the crank space, which in this design is pressurized to the mean working gas pressure. As the internal pressure oscillates around the mean, this pressure dierential can cause leakage ow, which imposes a loss on the engine in the form of lost P-V work.
Why is a free piston Stirling engine better than an ice engine?
When considered in terms of free piston Stirling engine, absence of a mechanical connection between displacement and power piston is advantageous compared to ICEs (reduced maintenance cost with fewer mechanical parts, increase in efficiency with the decrease in friction losses). Low acceleration due to thermal lag.
What is the mass of a power piston at 20 Hz?
The designed mass of the power piston to achieve resonance at 20 Hz is 14 kg. The power piston sits at an interface between the internal working uid and the crank space, which in this design is pressurized to the mean working gas pressure.
What is power piston swept volume?
Scaling up swept volume is best understood as a combination of scaling up engine size and piston stroke length. Keeping the engine size constant, scaling up power piston swept volume increases the fraction of PV potential extracted each cycle, and is somewhat analogous to increasing the compression ratio of a Brayton cycle.
What determines the eect of a power piston?
This face, along with the motion of the piston, determine the eect of the power piston on gas motion and compression. In light of this, material can be removed from the power piston on the exterior face to achieve the desired mass without aecting the internal cycle.
