2xScale doubles linear dimesions, squares areaa, and cubes volume is what you have said but...

200 cfm would be about 15 watts. Hope this helps.

How do you get the most power from a Stirling?
<t>One is temperature differential. The more the better because the <br/> maximum efficiency is TH-TC/TH*100. Degrees Kelvin of course. <br/> Example TCold = 300K (27C)<br/> THot = 500K (227C)<br/> Maximum efficiency = 500-300/500 * 100 = 40 Percent absolute max.<br/> Power almost varies as the squa...
