Building off a design invented and patented nearly 207 years ago by Robert Stirling, Qnergy’s Free Piston Stirling Engine is revolutionizing the capture of one of the most harmful pollutants out there ...

In 1816, engineer Robert Stirling invented his proprietary Stirling engine, an automatic power source operated by ambient heat rather than direct fuel sources like an internal combustion engine. It ...

E-bikes and motorcycles are great, but what if there were another way to get moving? What if there were a motor that didn't require the combustion of Odin's juice to get moving? Well, there are plenty ...

Have you ever imagined a bike powered not by gasoline or electricity, but by the simple act of heating and cooling air? It might sound like something out of a science fiction novel, but the concept is ...

Stirling engines, with their high conversion efficiency and excellent adaptability to various heat sources, show significant promise in the nuclear energy sector. This is particularly true for ...

Key Point: Back in the 1960s, Sweden had begun developing a modernized version of the Stirling engine, a closed-cycle heat conversion engine first developed in 1818. This was first used to power a car ...

A team of researchers from NASA and Los Alamos National Laboratory have demonstrated a new reactor concept that combines a Stirling engine with modern heat pipe cooling technology to provide a power ...
