So what’s next? A beta configuration engine? Would that not reduce the dead space dramatically? (ie. having both pistons close together?) … I’ve seen some people on youtube make a piston out of steel wool, hence behaving both as a displacer and a regenerator – looked like a good idea, but not sure how effective it would have been. I’m quite interested in beta confirations and linear generator stirlings, although eventually when I get up enough skill looking towards a free piston design (super complex).

No it wasn’t a joke, and I think I explained my design as best I could.

Hi,
Just to let you know. I watched your vidio when you turned the engine by hand. It seemed to have some compresion like a petrol engine. Well there is something wrong because all the sterling engines I have seen or built do not have compression like yours. Look at the books again it is a smooth, none compressive cycle and I can not see how you pressurized your engine with 2 recycled food tins for cylinders? Maybe you were cracking a joke?? I hope you get fun from your work. Seasons greetings.

Finally, after hours and I mean hours of search I finally found you..great stuff..the info, blog is worth the cost of the program.
My project is alpha from a compressor and Im curious about the head (volume) is an asset or a problem. Im considering the head chamber as a preheater / temperature maintainer area of the hot side and Im using glow plugs. The cylinder volume is 99cc and the head volume is 80cc per side. Any constructive ideas are appreciated.
