The shuttle heat transfer is one of the reasons reducing the performance of Stirling engines. This study is concerned with the reduction in shuttle heat transfer by coating the displacer. The displacer of a gamma type Stirling engine was coated with a layer of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), and t
This paper describes a mathematical model of engines operating with an ideal Stirling cycle and subject to limited heat transfer, internal thermal losses, and mechanical friction losses. The goal of the paper is to describe the fundamental effects of these imperfections on the performance of an othe
