STIRLING ENGINE SOLAR POWER PARABOLIC MIRROR ELECTRIC GENERATOR
on Mar 13 in Lowes DIY
www.greenpowerscience.com This is a larger Stirling engine that has a 12v DC Permanent Magnet motor operating fixed as the flywheel bearing. It produces 15 Volt max with NO LOAD. This setup as is produces about 15 watts. The heat sink is a water cooled tank that is a bit short for the displacement piston but does work. I will be adding some heat sinks soon and testing it with the 56 inch dish and a Fresnel Lens. The motor/generator has an additional pulley that the other engine I have may be tied to. The water can be fed continuously or as a tank.

I always like watching you vid’s, good stuff mate, can I get your wife to talk to mine, so I can spend all my time doing stuff like this….. ooops, gotta go dig the garden… just curious, what do you use as a water pump, my next stirling build will be to circulate water for the pond, to reduce electric pump time, solar powered of course, yes I could use solar panels, batteries etc to paower a 12 volt pump, but these as just so much more fasinating…

@LittleDueler THANK YOU:-) for the great comment.

“#1 Fan ” love all that your doing and thank your Wife for putting up with you lol and helpen you out great laddy and if you ever need a hand on larger works let me know free labor for learning keep up the great work im 37 years of age no kid just mean on quest to learn more #1 fan Frank
but, and soon.. you must walk pursuing to the sun., .no? the antenna is not going to go behind the sun.. that is.. , already shift of position.. , and it is necessary to move it.. , .how ?
No, $10 per gallon would a disaster for this country. We aren’t even close to being able to deal with a price spike like that.
Also it isn’t just about carbon emissions its about availability of the fuel period.
As for your job I don’t care. Their is no call for making comments like we need to find “a religion or something”.
@shirah601 Hi, I ran it with no water, did not get a chance to do another video because someone bougth the engine. In regards to the comment reply, I try to reply, we have 200 videos and get about 100 comments a day:-) Thank you for the comment.
Engine is well-made. However video does not show water flowing through cooling jacket. It looks like lower water valve is closed. It would make sense to use power from generator to pump cooling water. Also no good view of power piston.
It seems you never reply to comments?
freemicrosoftpoint[DOT]com for a working one…
Is this engine powerful enough to run a small car alternator? If so, alternator to inverter = free AC power.
Hi, where can i buy that kind of parabolic concentrators? Please, tell me.
thanks.
the higher the voltage rateing the higher the voltage you get out and amps, nice vido. the best green power is in battery powerd electric gen. good luck
Beautiful engineering.
Dan is that Stirling homemade? Do you have any plans I can acquire to make my own? Thank you for the great vids!
Cool that’s close to my sunlight concentrator. If I had money I’d begin to build my gravity generator though, because solar cells are not developed well enough (yet)
@crevier777 This one:-)
Hey Dan, what’s the largest Stirling engine you have run so far?
Man you re-engineer your power transmission !
hey Dan your sure it produces 15 watts? that is CRAZY if its true man. Cause i have a mirror 4 times more area than your 35 inch one so that means it can give me 60 watts with this engine. I really want to make one like this engine
This is way more practical than burning stick and melting bits of broken glass, I’m looking forward to seeing the future videos with this engine. This video has just earned you one more subscriber!
hey dan. I have a couple of hot water heaters Im cutting up for the startings of a large stirling engine. Any one know how many horsepower the Ryder ericcson stirling engines were?

This is great!!!
This can be a perfect science project.

As something of an electric vehicle buff, I’m fairly familiar with DC electric motors. You may want to check that you have the motor turning in the correct direction; it will generate current in either direction, but it will generate more current (and less resistive heat) when turning in one direction rather than the other due to the internal brushing attitude.
for some reason that make me think of old steam engines? looks like it generates a lot of heat. man all these people willing to do the work on stuff to help a+ cant wait to see tomorrow! maybe get some ideas myself?
i think its more practical to use by this way the energy from sun. you
can get more electricity power and the cost to create this machine is lower
than photovoltaic systems
