Assessment of design constraints for the Duplex Stirling Refrigerator with imperfect regeneration
2020, Journal of Cleaner ProductionCitation Excerpt :Kaushik and Kumar (2000) studied on the regenerative losses for an endoreversible Stirling engine In the next study, Kaushik and Kumar (2001) optimized the heat losses during the regeneration process of the Stirling and Ericsson heat engines. Kaushik et al. (2002) investigated the performance of Stirling and Ericsson heat pumps. It was noted that the effect of internal irreversibilities on the performance of the heat pumps is more dominant than the external irreversibilities.
Technological challenges and optimization efforts of the Stirling machine: A review
2018, Energy Conversion and ManagementCitation Excerpt :The six most developed micro-cogeneration units using Stirling engine are listed in Table 4. Several Stirling micro-cogeneration plants at various stages of development (prototype modeling, dimensioning and fabrication, experimental studies) are described in the literature [63–192]. The role of the Stirling engine in these units is to produce usable electrical energy.

2018, Comprehensive Energy SystemsPerformance analysis and multi-objective optimization of a Stirling engine based on MOPSOCD
2018, International Journal of Thermal SciencesCitation Excerpt :Wu et al. [16] investigated the optimal performance of a Stirling engine with a finite-speed effect in the regenerating processes and finite heat transfer in isothermal processes. Kaushik et al. [17–19] used the FTT method to develop a Stirling heat engine and pump model that is subject to a finite heat capacitance rate of working substance, the heat leak between two reservoirs, and regenerative losses. Ahmadi et al. [20] studied the effect of design parameters on a Stirling system model that considered finite-rate heat transfer, regenerative heat loss, conductive thermal bridging loss, and finite regeneration process time.

2018, Comprehensive Energy Systems: Volumes 1-5Optimization of an air-filled Beta type Stirling refrigerator
2017, International Journal of RefrigerationCitation Excerpt :Results show that it consists a maximum value of COP and that the cooling load has a parabolic dependence on COP, unlike the monotonically decreasing behaviour in the case of an endoreversible air refrigeration cycle. Kaushik et al. (2002) studied internal and external irreversibilities inside Stirling and Ericsson heat pump cycles. Results show that the effects of internal irreversibilities are more important than external ones.
