This may already be known to the group but I have just read in the current issue of UK stirling news that William Martini's stirling design manual is available...
It is also available from NASA's online report server. Let me see if I can find the reference. going to this page: http://ntrs.nasa.gov/ and typing in "martini...
Today I replaced the closely wound copper (?) wire regenerator in my Ross type engine with a much looser one (lower fill factor, more flow area) made of...
Hi Nick, I have had a look at your photos and it seems to me that there may be a fair bit of resistance in the heater. Reducing the regenerator fill factor...
Yes this is very much of interest, I welcome any comments on my rather unscientific tinkerings! As I mentioned when I first aquired it, a few details did not...
