Stirling motors without hot spring integrated

we are three french students in an Ingenering school in France. We
are in training course in a company. The subject is to convert
thermical energy into electrical energy.
We already have a hot spring, and we'd like to have a Strirling
motor which can give us a power of 260W. The temperature of the hot
source is between 74 and 155°C.
Does this type of engine exist? Where can we have information on it?
Where can we buy some?

Thanks

Audrey, Valérie, Charline

Moderate power output Stirling engines.

Most of the Stirling engines on the market today are very low power demonstration units for display and educational use.

Whispergen and Microgen are CHP, Combined Heat and Power units for specialized applications. These are made and sold via contracts for a number of units.

Check on http://www.stmpower.com for information on their units.
Manufacturers or research and design organizations interested in producing Stirling engines are seeking research and develepmont funds to sustain their R&D programs.

Try links at Stirlinginfo.com, SESUSA.org, and search for WhisperGen and Microgen with google.com or dogpile.com
