Response to Combined Stirling/Brayton Cycle

My apologies. I was saying Diesel, but thinking gas turbine. (aka Iam
batman corrected me).

So if you look at all my past comments and change diesel to gas
turbine, they will all probably make more sense.

Response to Combined Stirling/Brayton Cycle

<t>>The idea in my engine is that the pressure built up from the exhaust gases would drive the turbine and not the temperature/expansion spikes of intial combustion. We want to move as much of the thermal energy through the Stirling engine before allowing the exhaust gases to escape through the turb...

Response to Combined Stirling/Brayton Cycle

So the yellow is the exhaust? It looks to me that you are burning
fuel to turn a turbine, like a diesel engine. So... if you hooked
sirling engine to the casing of a diesel engine, then you would be
all set.

Probably a good idea.
