An Overview on Sterling Engine
Abstract
This paper presented an overview on Stirling engine, working principle and history of sterling engine. Power and efficiency of the engine must be not lower than their averaged values for the same engine working in unsteady conditions. This paper represents different researches on sterling engine and its modification and use from past to present.Keywords
