Very attractive design! And since it seems to me that it works with air under increased pressure, could you please provide a simplified drawing of the chambers under pressure? And how the pneumatic sealing of the working chamber at the point of entry of the rod of the displacer is performed. Thank you
Its extremely nice and powerful enough to generate decent electricity. However, one of the main reasons I like heat engines is that some are very quiet. I'm not an engineer. Maybe this design has that trade off. Your work is beautiful and functional.
What material is the regenerator made of (the part that touches the flame)? Also, I assume that the water is used as a coolant, not circulated mechanically, but immobile sitting near or at the top of the regenerator. Is that correct?
Have you tried pointing a large Fresnel spot lense onto the expansion cylinder as your source of heat? I would be curious to know what the output power of this engine is. Thanks
Im sorry but a lot of these builds are next to useless. I would like to see an engine producing POWER or enough energy to run an alternator/generastor for off grid living. Hobby crap is just that, sorry.
How is this useless? If you set out to build a generator set, you wouldn't choose a stirling engine to drive it. Even so, a few tens of watts trickle charging a battery bank in winter would be feasible (in summer use photovoltaics!). This engine clearly produces far more torque than your average stirling as demonstrated at the end. It could conceivably be put to use driving small workshop equipment or pumping water into a storage tank to build a usable head of pressure.
As soon as I saw that the flywheel was balanced, I knew this man put a lot of effort into this machine.

Does anyone know what the measuring tool at 2:00 is? Does it measure angular speed or what?
RPM.

Very nice engine! It seems very powerfull! Ideas on its power output? Many congratulations! Use regenerator? Or just the simple displacer? Tanks!
Some power there, for a Stirling Engine!
Nicely done!
Zdenek Bravo, you did it yourself?
Génial vu le couple qu'il a, vous pouvez en faire une scie circulaire pour couper son propre bois a lui pour l'alimenter 😅 et la boucle est bouclée
It's a Robinson type - very nice
I was just in Czech, I'm sad i missed this one
Pěkný "motorek", gratuluju! Jaký dává výkon? Podle brzdění na konci videa to vypadá na pár desítek Watů...
Сколько см поршня это потенциал? Поздравляю с крутящим моментом и мощностью этого действительно хорошего двигателя
Olá amigo, adoro ver esse motor funcionando. Vejo sempre esse vídeo.
Beautiful Machine !!! =) Thank You !!! =)
Nice! Well done! A question: was the water you poured in for cooling purposes or for steam?
cooling
Magnifico!
Magnifique
NICE!
sounds like a steam engine :P
