In this paper, conceptual design of scroll expander-compressor for Stirling engine utilizing solar energy as heat source has been carried out. Orbiting scroll member was designed to have a double-sided structure to reduce the overall scroll size and to cancel out the axial forces on the orbiting scroll base plate. Diameter of designed scroll base plate was about 251 mm for the expander, and it was about 218 mm for the compressor. With operating condition such as temperature range of $400^{\circ}C/20^{\circ}C$, pressure range of 6 MPa/2 MPa, and shaft speed of 2700 rpm, the shaft output of the designed scroll expander was calculated to be 49.8 kW, while input power for the scroll compressor was 38.6 kW, yielding 11.2 kW for the output power of the Stirling engine. Overall efficiencies of the scroll expander and compressor were 93.73% and 92.87%, respectively.

Numerical study is conducted to design the high temperature heat exchanger of Stirling engine by using the commercial CFD solver, FLUENT. The Fin-tube type of heat exchanger is designed as a reference model by considering the type of engine which is ${\beta}$-configuration. To find the optimal design of heat exchanger in heat transfer capacity numerical calculation is conducted by changing the shape, the number, and material of reference model in three-dimensional combustion field. Adjusted one-way constant velocity of working fluid that is helium is considered as the representative velocity of oscillating flow. The optimal design of heat exchanger considering the heat transfer capability is suggested by using the calculation results.

In order to make a match of the insufficient direct solar radiation, in this study, the target output is lowered to 9 kW smaller than 25 kW in former studies. It is also necessary to match the collector/receiver with engine/generator systems to accomplish the power level of a system. The simulation analyses of a dish solar power system with stirling engine are totally carried out to predict the system performance with the designed values. In addition, an influence of direct solar radiation on system performance and operation control is discussed in simulation. It is found that the diameter of concentrator could be made small to 8 m regardless of slope errors with 2.5 and 5.0 mrad radiation, and the operation range of mean pressure control. is wide even if the direct solar radiation is a quit low.

The effects of applying the micro CHP system to the domestic sector in Korea were investigated using annual cooling and heating demand data. Four prime movers, micro gas turbine, PEMFC, gas engine and Stirling engine, were compared for three operational modes. Two way buy-back was assumed for both electricity and heat. The Stirling engine gave the lowest $CO_2$ emission per energy for 300kWh monthly electricity production. However, PEMFC became more effective when considering PURPA criteria. PEMFC generated the least greenhouse gas with higher electrical efficiency for cooling. The Stirling engine, however, became competitive for heating with higher total efficiency.

The output of the Stirling engine is influenced by the regenerator effectiveness. The regenerator effectiveness is influenced by heat transfer and flow friction loss of the regenerator matrix. In this paper, in order to provide basic data for the design of regenerator matrix, characteristics of flow friction loss were investigated by a packed method of matrix in the oscillating flow as the same condition of operation in a Stirling engine. As matrices, two different wire screens were used. The results are summarized as follows; 1. With the wire screen of No. 50 as regenerator matrices, pressure drop of working fluid of the oscillating flow is shown as 3 times higher than that of one directional flow, not too much influenced by the number of packed meshes. 2. With the wire screen of No. 100 as regenerator matrices, pressure drop of working fluid of the oscillating flow is shown as 2.5 times on the average higher than that of one directional flow, not too much influenced by the number of packed meshes. 3. Under one directional flow which used regenerator matrices with both 200, 240, and 280 wire screens of No. 50 and 320, 370, and 420 wire screens of No. 100, the relationship between the friction factor and Reynold No. is shown as the following formula. $$f=\frac{0.00326639}{Re\iota}-1.29106{\times}10^{-4}$$ 4. Under oscillating flow which used regenerator matrices with both 200, 240, and 280 wire screens of No. 50 and 320, 370, and 420 wire screens of No. 100, the relationship between the friction factor and Reynold No. is shown as the following formula. $$f_r=\frac{0.000918567}{Re\iota}+1.86101{\times}10^{-5}$$ 5. The pressure drop is shown as high in proportion as the number of meshes has been higher, and the number of packed wire screens as matrices increases.

A kinetmatic stirling engine with a domed heater was designed, fabricated and test. In designing and fabrication of the engine various problems were confronted and solved. Among various parts of the engine, cooler and main seal needed sophisticated techniques to fabricated in order to prevent leakage of working gas from the parts and to ensure their proper functions in the engine. The engine had a series of experiment at various working gas pressure, heater temperatures and engine speeds to evaluate its performance. Indicated and brake power outputs and indicated and brake thermal efficiencies were determined from the experimental data. The engine resulted a little inferior performance to that of the GPU-3 engine of which performance was well reported . Several recommendations were made to improve the performance of the engine during the evaluation of its performance.

This study was carried out to develop a process to design a stirling engine utilizing agricultural energy resources and to understand problems confronted in manufacturing the engine in domestic environments, and to suggest methods to improve performance of the engine. A small prototype of the engine was designed, manufactured and tested for its performance. The study proved that more work would be needed to develop a method to seal the engine and to make the engine cooler. Performance of the engine was a little inferrior to that of the GPU-3 engine and was expected to be enhanced by improvement of heat transfer and power transmission mechanisms.
