One of my ideas that I want to test is to have an array of MC Stirling engines that http://www.alice-dsl.net/bsuhrbier3/MC_easy.html bu...

It's a stirling engine where the displacer is moved by some magnets, the idea was to eliminate the displacer rod so that there is less chance of any air leaking out. The displacer has a magnet on it's end which alternately attracted and repelled by th...
