The Stirling Cycle
• Process 1-2: Isothermal ex
pansion
• 2-3: Constant-volume cool
ing
• 3-4: Isothermal compressi
on
• 4-1: Constant-volume heat
ing

Advantage
• Simple design
• Low cost
• Portable
• Good Performance
• Good efficiency

Conclusion
• Low torque
• In order to be more efficient, it requi
res metals with very high thermal co
nductivity, which can be expensive
• Rotation is not always smooth – the
fluid sometimes heats up faster than
it cools off
