Book Description:
|
This 1992 book provides a coherent and comprehensive treatment of the thermodynamics and gas dynamics of the practical Stirling cycle. Invented in 1816, the Stirling engine is the subject of worldwide research and development on account of unique qualities - silence, low level of emissions when burning conventional fuels and an ability to function in reverse as heat pump or refrigerator.
