Big gamma, using a small tire as a diaphragm.

Hi, I found another project, looks like it has nice torque.

Still not working. I found this project that is using about the same size displacer that I am using.

At this time I think I need a larger volume of air inside the system. Suggestions welcome.

Hi, thanks for the info. I have been working on reducing the friction. I still have to add the stainless steel wool to the displacer and seal the system.

Congratulations, thanks for posting the video.

Hi, not sure how to fabricate it but it says 500 Watts.

Question about the displacer, if I am fabricating it from a cylinder with a top and bottom plate, should the cylinder be air tight????

possible solution for low friction, air tight seal needed for operation

Hi, yes. After watching a few more videos on youtube I now know the friction of the system is to high. I have started a rebuild. This is a first attempt and I am just trying to get it to run. Thanks for the input. Searching for ideas to make the system air tight and have low friction. Suggestions we...

I was able to pressurize the system to 10 psi. There appears to be a slow leak at the power piston. I will have to install the same gasket configuration at the power piston.

The biggest difference is the increase in system compression. It will need a larger diameter flywheel.

Hi, I think the biggest problem I have is the system is not air tight. I cut a gasket using a CNC and I plan to use a flared plumbing brass fitting to try to seal the system. http://gallery.anotherpower.com/main.php/d/29947-1/DSCN3904.JPG http://gallery.anotherpower.com/main.php/d/29949-1/DSCN3905.J...

[youtube]https://youtu.be/AdojR4QbsTA[/youtube] Greeting, this a first attempt. I can fabricate all the parts. I have tested the engine with mapp gas and the hot cylinder glows red and the engine shows no indication of rotation. I fitted the system with a air valve and pumped some air into the syste...

Any updates? Did you get this working? Cheers, Dave aircompressor.jpg CylConcept.jpg InsideCylinderHead.jpg Greetings, project progress to date. I purchased the air compressor. I disassembled the air compressor. I determined that the reed plates and inside the cylinder head will have to be machined...

Greetings, yes I have also posted on cnc zone. I am trying to get as much input as possible.
Best regards

Greetings, can you recommend a off the item that would work as a safety valve and should it placed above or below the piston? The only item I can think of is a hot water tank safety valve, then the question is what psi is involved with the stirling cycle?
