The Stirling engine boasts impressive features, starting with the LT001 model in a sleek silver plate and gold flywheel design. Capable of reaching speeds up to 180-200 RPM, it can generate a temperature difference of approximately 20°C (68°F). Crafted with high-quality materials, including carbon steel, nickel-plated carbon steel, stainless steel, glass, bronze, PVC foam, and plastics, this compact engine measures 101014cm (3.943.945.51 in) and weighs 250g (0.55lb).
Complementing the engine is a comprehensive user manual, ensuring a smooth operation experience. The M14-03-S model offers a speed range of 1300 to 1500 RPM, with a weight of 480g (17.74oz) and dimensions of 205x100x90mm (8.073.933.54in). Its technical parameters include a flywheel diameter of 54mm, a driving wheel of 24mm, a power cylinder inner diameter of 14mm, a piston path of 16.0mm, and a cylinder inner diameter of 19.0mm.
The Stirling engine's exceptional build quality is evident in its use of mirror-surface stainless steel for the base, a glass cylinder liner, and a zinc alloy flywheel. All components have undergone surface treatment to prevent rusting, ensuring an oil-free operation.
The engine's ease of use is a standout feature. Simply place it on a cup of hot coffee, and it will run effortlessly. As the coffee cools, the engine's speed slows, indicating the optimal drinking temperature. For an even more captivating experience, some users have experimented by placing the engine on a cup of hot water with small ice cubes on the upper plate, creating a more significant temperature difference and resulting in a faster, more energetic operation.
The engine's longevity is equally impressive, with the ability to run continuously for over 24 hours without any issues, provided a consistent power source is available. One customer even placed the engine on a USB-powered hot plate, allowing it to run on their desk for weeks.
To ensure a smooth start-up, users are advised to fill the alcohol burner with 95% alcohol (the recommended fuel) and ignite it. After allowing the round-ended cylinder to heat for approximately 20 seconds, a gentle push on the wheel will set the engine in motion, allowing it to run for up to 8 hours without interruption.
The engine's packaging is designed with care, featuring a separate glass tube with a bubble bag to protect the component during shipping. The wood base is left unfinished, allowing users to customize it with their preferred stain or paint, unleashing their creativity and engaging in a fun activity with kids or friends.
Overall, this Stirling engine is a meticulously crafted, high-performing, and versatile device that not only showcases the wonders of mechanical engineering but also provides an engaging and long-lasting source of entertainment and educational value.
