Description

The Transparent Stirling Engine is ideal for quantitative investigations of cyclic thermodynamic processes and specifically for understanding the Stirling cycle. The integrated generator has a two stage belt pulley and is equipped with a switchover option for operating an integrated lamp, external loads, or demonstrating the processes of a heat pump or refrigerator. Includes integrated engine generator and alcohol burner. Fuel not included; please use methylated-spirits, i.e. denatured alcohol.

Features:

1) Recessed temperature measurement sockets

2) Light barrier on flywheel

3) Connection for pressure measurements

4) String to measure the stroke of the power piston and determine volume

5) Displacement cylinder and piston made of heat resistant glass

6) Power cylinder, flywheel, and gearbox covers made of acrylic glass
