Just Have a Think | Stirling Heat Engine to Stirling Heat Pump : How is it done? @JustHaveaThink | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 36 minutes ago.
Stirling engines have been around since the nineteenth century. They are an elegantly simple way of generating power using temperature differentials, but nobody ever found a way to make them efficient enough for wide scale use. Now a UK company has developed a heat pump system based on the principles of the Stirling Engine, but with some ingenious adaptations, using no HFC refrigeration gases and with a 30% saving in energy costs compared to existing systems.
