The Heat Transfer System on 3 kW Dish Solar Stirling Engine
The heat transfer system is one of the key components of a Stirling engine. According to the designing requirements that the power generation reaches 3 kW and the efficiency is greater than 20% for the Stirling engines
it designed the supporting heat exchanger system with a heat receiver
a regenerator
and a cooler. The theoretical power generation was calculated at 4.2 kW
its efficiency reaching 28.6%. In addition
it conducted an experiment of the cooler. Experimental results show that the efficiency of the cooler heat exchanger is up to 93.6%
