    The examination of performance characteristics of a beta-type Stirling engine with a rhombic mechanism: The influence of various working fluids and displacer piston materials
    (Wiley, 2021) Erol, Dervis; Caliskan, Sinan
    In this study, to develop a power generation system that can use renewable energy resources more efficiently, a beta-type Stirling engine with rhombic mechanism was designed and manufactured. Kinematic and thermodynamic analyses of a beta-type Stirling engine were performed numerically in the Fortran program. Volume and pressure changes depending on crankshaft angle of Stirling engine were made using the isothermal analysis. The effects of the basic parameters related to engine performance, such as working fluid mass, charge pressure, heater, and coolant temperatures, on the net work amount were investigated. Five different gases, including helium, air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and argon, were used as a working fluid in experimental studies. The effects of all these gases on engine performance characteristics were examined at charge pressures of 1 to 5 bar for two different displacer pistons made of stainless steel and titanium material. The performance characteristics of Stirling engine manufactured were tested using a specially designed electrical heater, at 727 degrees C hot end and 27 degrees C cold end temperature, depending on engine speed. In all experimental studies, maximum power output was acquired to be 215.48 W, at 4 bar and 550 rpm when a stainless steel displacer piston and helium gas as a working fluid were used, and maximum torque value was acquired to be 7.54 Nm, at 5 bar and 150 rpm. The lowest engine power output among maximum engine powers was acquired to be 34.66 W when argon gas was used as a working fluid at 3 bar and 300 rpm, using a displacer piston made of titanium material. Maximum power output acquired in the experimental studies using a stainless steel displacer piston and helium; it was determined that it is 72.12%, 73.69%, 241.49%, and 288.81% higher than the engine power acquired by nitrogen, air, carbon dioxide, and argon gases, respectively.

    The investigation of an energetic and exergetic performance characteristics of a beta-type Stirling engine with a rhombic drive mechanism
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2021) Erol, Dervis; Dogan, Battal; Caliskan, Sinan
    In this study, effects of using helium, nitrogen, air, carbon dioxide and argon gases as working fluid in a beta-type Stirling engine with rhombic drive mechanism and swept volume of 365 cm(3) on the engine performance characteristics for two different stainless steel and titanium displacer pistons at charge pressures of 1-5 bar were examined. The performance characteristics of manufactured Stirling engine were investigated at 1000 K (+/- 10 K) hot end and 300 K (+/- 5 K) cold end temperatures using a specifically designed electrical heater. Energy and exergy analyses were carried out using temperature, pressure, speed and torque values measured in performance tests. As a result of the exergy analysis, helium gas performed the best in the stainless steel displacer piston at a charge pressure of 4 bar and an engine speed of 550 rpm. Under the said conditions, 0.3726 W/K entropy generation and 195.53 W destroyed exergy were calculated in thermodynamic analysis in the helium working fluid. Furthermore, under the same conditions, helium gas achieved the highest efficiency values of 48.04% for thermal efficiency, 56.54% for exergy efficiency and 69.2% for Carnot efficiency. The lowest exergetic performance was revealed in titanium displacer piston when argon was used as working fluid.
