Stirling-engine heat-actuated heat pump

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5754729
A Stirling-engine-driven heat-actuated heat pump (HAHP) system developed at Mechanical Technology Incorporated (MTI) consists of a free-piston Stirling engine (FPSE) driver, a diaphragm-actuated hydraulic coupling, and a Rankine-cycle, resonant-linear refrigerant compressor. This system has been under development at MTI for the past two years; within the last six months, the unit has been placed on test. The system and test results achieved to date are described.
