Abstract: A Stirling engine comprising: a crank case (1) with a crank shaft (2) arranged therein, a displacer cylinder (3) with a reciprocatingly arranged displacer piston (4) therein, said displacer piston (4) being connected to said crank shaft (2) via a connecting rod (5) extending through a first end of said displacer cylinder (3), and wherein the displacer cylinder (3) defines a hot chamber (6) and a cool chamber (7) separated by the displacer piston (4), a working cylinder (8) defining a working cylinder chamber (11) with a reciprocatingly arranged working piston (9) therein, said working piston (9) being connected to said crank shaft (2) via a connecting rod (10) extending through a first end of the working cylinder (8), a heater device (14), arranged at a second end of said displacer cylinder (3) opposite to said first end and configured to heat a working gas which is present in the hot chamber (6) of the displacer cylinder (3) and in fluid communication with the working cylinder chamber (11) through a worki

Abstract: A Stirling engine includes a working cylinder defining a working cylinder chamber with a reciprocatingly-arranged working piston and a heater fluidly communicating with the working cylinder chamber through a working gas channel. The engine includes a first heat exchanger extending from a head of a displacer cylinder into the heater, a second heat exchanger formed by a regenerator arranged outside the heater, and a third heat exchanger formed by a cooler arranged between the regenerator and the working cylinder chamber. At any point along the working gas channel, as seen cross-wise to an assumed working gas flow direction through the working gas channel, the cross section area of the working gas channel defined by the first, second and third heat exchangers is within the range of the medium cross section area of the working gas channel +/?10%.
