  • Thermoacoustic energy conversion system
    Patent number: 10830175
    Abstract: A thermoacoustic energy conversion system includes a closed circumferential encasing filled with a working fluid through which an acoustic wave can propagate in a propagation direction in use of the system, and at least one assembly of two heat exchangers with a regenerator sandwiched there-between arranged in said encasing. The at least one assembly is arranged substantially parallel to a local longitudinal axis of the encasing.
    Type: Grant
