- Additional information
- This paper presents both experimental and numerical studies of pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of Stirling engine regenerators. The test bench operating condition range is initially determined based on the performance of the commercial, well-known Stirling engine called WhisperGen™. The regenerator is the critical component in the Stirling engine efficiency and this study is part of a project partially funded by the company Efficient Home Energy (EHE).
