Book Synopsis Free-piston Stirling Converter Model Development, Validation, and Analysis for Space Power Systems by : Jonathan F. Metscher
Book excerpt: Using the Sage 1-D Stirling modeling software, a linear alternator model was developed using two separate methods and integrated with an existing ASC Stirling engine model. One used a simplified transducer method, while the other was developed from first principles. The combined models were tuned and validated against test data and then compared against each other. Both validated models are able to match test data within 7% or better.
