<r>OK, I said I wasn't interested in standing waves and all that but now I see that making waves is easier that physical pistons, except it looks like I need traveling waves more than standing waves according to the information at: <br/> <br/> <URL url="http://64.106.253.12/PDFs/university-forum/aco...

<r>Has anyone made a speaker driven piston?<br/> <br/> I'm not talking about the systems that create acuostic standing waves<br/> and all that. I'm just wondering if anyone has had success with like<br/> using a long throw woofer to drive the linear Stirling power and/or<br/> displacer pistons. Some...

<t>Has anyone experimented with solid-liquid phase changing regenerators?<br/> <br/> For example the wire mesh could be coated with a metal that melts at<br/> low temperature like, tin or bismuth, then it would absorb more heat<br/> and give off more heat upon freezing when going the other direction...

I see maybe I put this in the wrong forum. It is for my education but maybe I'm supposed to use the Power Producing forum. Sorry about that.

<t>I'm just getting into how it all works. <br/> <br/> Can someone please say, can the displacement piston be made out of a <br/> porous material needed so that it double duties as a regenerator such <br/> that the gas goes through it and it absorbs some of the heat and then <br/> gives it back when...
