OK Tom, Sounds Good. I am normally the first to look at what is avaliable from existing technology, but there are some points to keep in mind. As you correctly...

Hi Tom & Rick Tom I concur with Rick when relating to the bearings and the mass of the x head .The 2 stroke piston could easly be machined to lighten it. As...
<random musings> AiResearch made an air cycle machine for the SR that used a wick for lubrication. The wick touched the shaft, which spun at about 120kRPM. ...
(re: 6106) Tom, By definition a Stirling cycle has 2 dynamic isothermal processes and a regenerator. An Otto cycle replaces the isothermal with adibatic ...
Matt Please explain how an Otto cycle regenerates heat, bounce cycle or otherwise. Please explain why and according to what measurement Isothermal trumps ...
Hello Lee The five cycles are Brayton (B), Carnot (C), Ericsson (E), Otto (O), and Stirling (S). E and S are commonly considered the only regenerative cycles...
... <SNIP> I finally remembered to give John a call, and he's still around, up to his old trix. He's still got the multi-cylinder alpha motor mentioned above...
Hello List, I have been working on a comparison of drive linkages for a beta type Stirling. I was interested to find out what kinimatic phase angle and slopes...
One of us does not understand the function of the regenerator in the real world Stirling engine, which by the way does not operate on the Stirling cycle....
Who can tell me how to view these photos/files for #1 I only can view the 15kb photo for #2 the 5kb and I can't see any detail I don't know how to view them in...
CVH, You are looking at the thumbnail images. If you view this list through Netscape or IE browsers, you need only click on the image. I could also send them...
sure, I am looking beyond the thumbnails but still I can't see any detail, the image is only 1/6 of a screen. I read that Yahoo has 3 size ie #1 Thumbnail: 1...
Tom I'm striving to quantify the cycle heat. Common work, amateur and pro, ignores quantifying regeneration input (Qr) apart from source input (Qi), and herein...
Hi Matt CUT ... Theoretical E and S cycles are regenerative cycles and both REQUIRE a regenerator or they are not E and S cycles. They are the only cycles in...
Lee, Thank you for this crystal clear point about working fluids. I knew the effects from observation but the reasons had never been made so understandable...
Chris, I believe it would be very beneficial to the group to know something about the friction character of the 2-cycle engines you picked up. While you are...
Tom, I am not sure what you expext to learn from a motoring test. The friction from the piston skirt on the cylider will be very dependent on lubrication....
Thats a good idea. I will have to think about a good way to do that with stuff I can kludge together. I have a(nother) court date on the 9th (same old ex wife...
Chris, Please note Rick's comments on the lubrication issues. If the clearances are sufficient a Rulon ring substitute might prove to be beneficial. I am...
Rick, Thanks that's good information to have in hand. Let's see what Chris discovers when he cracks the shell. If the whole idea turns out to be unsuitable to...
List, I'm working on a simulation case and have the next questions. I'll ask them in the group so I don't use my, maybe faulty, interpretation. Mean pressure:...
CVH: Hope I've got al this straight. See inserted comments below. ... COMMENT: Mean Effective Pressure in the piston cylinder is what produces thrust. The...
dictionary mean: Mathematics: a. A number that typifies a set of numbers, such as a geometric mean or an arithmetic mean. b. The AVERAGE value of a set of...
CVH: (Corrected reference to OP on topic) You have the dictionary definition correct. With respect to engines in general the MEP is that taken from the ...
Stan, List, I'll try something else look at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sesusa/files/sqauredcycle_files/Pn&T.jpg The numbers are correct, an explanation is...
