STIRLING ENGINE

A Stirling engine is a type of heat engine that operates by cyclic compression and expansion of air or other gas (the working fluid) at different temperature levels, converting thermal energy into mechanical work. It uses external heat sources, such as solar energy, geothermal energy, or combustion, and works on the principle of a closed-loop thermodynamic cycle. Stirling engines are known for their high efficiency, quiet operation, and ability to run on various heat sources, making them suitable for applications like power generation, refrigeration, and low-power devices.
