...P. C. T. de Boer, Mem. ASME, Graduate School Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, The flow through the regenerator of a Stirling engine is driven by differences of pressure in the compression and expansion spaces. These differences lead to power dissipation in the regenerator. Using...

...Rahim K. Jassim The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the importance of the use of the exergy analysis in the optimization of the geometry of a periodic-flow regenerator. The optimum geometry of the regenerator is determined using the unit cost of exergy of the warm air delivered...

...Chan-Woo Park; Massoud Kaviany An existing in-cylinder thermal regeneration concept for Diesel engines is examined for the roles of the porous insert motion and the fuel injection strategies on the fuel evaporation and combustion and on the engine efficiency. While the heated air emanating from...
