摘要
Over one hundred and sixty years after Robert Stirling invented the engine that now bears his name, the Stirling engine seems to be the ideal power plant to meet the legislative and economic pressures of the 1980s. Quiet, pollution-free and theoretically efficient, the Stirling engine seems poised to make a comeback. By strict definition, a Stirling engine is a prime mover which operates upon a closed regenerative thermodynamic cycle during which the flow is controlled by volume changes. The particular advantage of this thermodynamic cycle is its very high theoretical efficiency. The article discusses the potential and the problems of the Stirling engine.
