CFD simulation of an alfa-stirling engine to study the geometrical parameters on the engine performance

An alpha-Stirling configuration was modelled using a Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD), using ANSYS® software. A Stirling engine is an externally heated engine which has the advantage of working with several heat sources with high efficiencies. The working gas flows between compression and expansion...
