Abstract

A mathematical modelling of a Stirling engine is developed here. After that we identified the various performance parameters, initial parameters, and operational parameters. The influences of various parameters on the Stirling cycle were investigated in this work. The analysis is mainly performed on the Gamma type Stirling engine because of higher efficiency use in multi cylinder engines. The system of governing equations was developed and employed to investigate the variation of all process and performance parameters. The selected model was adiabatic model, due to better approximation to real engine performance compared to the isothermal model. The total, expansion and compression volumes and step by step crank angle variations were investigated. Output variable which is subjected to be optimized is the engine power.
