Response to Outdoor Wood Boilers and Electrical Production

<t>Here here! From what I've read, the delta t would not be as "large" as you would think, as alot of the engines I've seen use between 600 to 1200 deg. F at the cylinder head. However, you would think that you could still produce some useful energy. Since I run my outdoor boiler on scrap from my ha...

Response to Hot water powered Stirling for power generation

<t>Sorry, don't really have a solution, but wish to commiserate. I also have a 10,000sqft outdoor wood furnace, I run it at about 190 deg. F.<br/> Frankly, I wouldn't care if the Stirling Gen-set was big. Basically, from what I understand, the smaller the temperature differential, the larger the eng...
