Tom, As I have it modeled today, the kinematics (drive linkage) would fit inside a 10 inch pipe section. The pipe length would only need to be about 4 inches...

List, I find the sizes used by the DTU group interesting because of the differing size and angles used in each bell crank(half yoke). Perhaps this was a n...
List, Rick, The DTU engine uses indeed asymmetric bell's or yokes to avoid too large Vcomp according Vexp, a symptom of Beta and Gamma engines. Somthing I...
Hi Zig, I would be interested in your method for determining minimum hoiz deflection. I am also working with other angles and swing-arm lengths. I hope to...
Relatively new member with a couple of questions. How are you collecting the information from an engine that is running to measure the thermal and work...
Rick Topf I have developed Stirling Engine using local available materials capable to produce about 1kW. The engine is in the village and I want to analyse its...
Lord, Equipment to record this data can be expensive when intergrated with a PC. Do a Google search on "data aquisition boards" for suppliers. You can also...
Steve, A hilsch tube would not work in place of a regenerator. These tube operate by spinning the working fluid at high speed. The working fluid in a stirling...
Rick, List, Would it be possible to describe a vertical slot shape other than a straight groove, which would compensate for the unwanted motion (i.e. not...
Tom, The Ross Yoke Patents are under Melvin Andrew Ross with either Melvin or Andrew abbreviated (cloke and dagger at the PTO). I found the following: ...
Tom, Could you rephrase this. A standard use of a Ross Yoke and a swingarm yields a fairly straight coupler curve opposite the swingarm and a '8' shape coupler...
Tom, CVH CVH has answered this question very well. We can get much of the deflection out with a slot but not quite all. In that regard, let me add that .05mm...
Thanks Zig keep up the good work I only would like to mention this: In all the simulation we done and the evaluating of the DTU engine we see: a<>b f=0 a<c b<d...
CVH, thanks for looking at my stuff. Concerning the DTU engine pre data : with your values my number cruncher gets x4_diff= 0.1075 mm ( DTU 0.094 ) y4_diff=...
Zig, Excellent work! I like the idea of using a web page so we all can have reference wherever we are. I will try to use the size variables you suggest. Rick ...
Zig, I ment to write 'double 8' and I think the name bowtie origin is 'bow tie' As you said earlier, it is like finding a tree in a forrest On the moment I...
Excel has a very nice optimization feature under tools/solver (if you can't find it go to add-ins and add in the solver) It allows you to minimize or maximize...
Hi maniacal_engineer, Thanks for the advice. My program actually can optionally use what you describe as a "gradient following type optimization" starting at...
... [CVH] first time you ask this so I checked them. result: They do add up considering given 3 numbers after dec.point ... [CVH] yes of course a nice feature...

Rick Topf Thank you for your Google search and suggestion. I am studying them to see which one I can afford that can be useful to my engine. The engine is...

List, I have been working with an idea for using a slotted bellcrank in place of a swingarm for use with a bowtie type drive. Please reference the image...
Rick, Is this for one piston or two ? Seems like only one from this view ? Did you intend that the other be a mirror image of this one on the same crankpin...
Hi Tom, Sorry, I should have clearfied. This is just one of the two needed. I have shown the upper bellcrank, but the lower would be almost a mirror. Since...
