STIRLING ENGINE FRESNEL LENS SOLAR POWER GREEN ENERGY SUN

so how do i get to work on one of those things?? doesnt look like theres much room for shopping either. whats its top speed? no no i dont think this is going to work at all

Here is a way that a residential house could effectively store solar energy during the five hours of good sunshine, to last for the full twenty-four hours. Use a hydraulic elevator system lifting a very heavy weight, where the energy is stored by the gravity of the weight. When the sun goes down,or when more power is needed during the five hours of good sunshine, the very heavy weight movement is reversed and the hydraulics is used to generate power.

Where can I buy a Stirling Engine? Anyone got any reasonably-priced sources?
Thanks.

wow it's a wonderful masterpiece….i'm in to make such thing now…

Hey guys I'm in west leederville in Australia I have spare time I can do the labor and scavenge to help make this, also I have a computer science degree, get in touch!

This is beautiful man, thankyou so much for providing inspiration.

OK idea for a 1870's Scotsman isn't it!,I saw a simpler heat engine and was fascinating to see,could one or more of these be used to utilise waste heat in central heating/ power stations maybe?. Keep up the good work!

Surely some kind of Stirling turbine would have higher efficiency? We seem to be fixated on pistons..

problem is we would need an alternate source for night and cloudy days which i don't see why we don't make hybrid cars of electricity and solarpower?

I have several links on my website. Go to the stirling engine page and there are several wholesale sellers at the bottom. This engine can also be bought off of ebay. The only load test I did was with friction at this point.

Where can I get a Stirling Engine like that one? Have you tried to run it with a load?

Even a small 8×10 in I have can ignite a 2×6 board in less then 5 seconds. Keep the lens covered when not in use. Now all you eBay profiteers, don't be hate'n! Now get out there and make mother earth proud, reinvent the wheel.

Behind the front plastic screen protector is the big *** Fresnel your all looking for but hang onto that screen protector to use to keep the lens flat. Warning!!! Please treat this like a loaded gun, as a curious child can ignite your house in a few seconds and pray to your higher being you and them are not in it.

OK guy and gals or should I just say inventers. Don't go throughing down a $100 bucks for a Fresnel lens on eBay cus you can get big *** ones from your friends and nabors or even a TV maintenance shop. You see they're in all them big *** projection TV's your buying as consumers.

See Whispergen, new sterling powered generator. I was onboard a boat that had one for a heat and electrical source, very cool!

Thanks, I felt kinda silly after asking about the lenses…I saw that he was selling them about five minutes later.

The large ones are hard to find agreed on Ebay for the smaller ones.

they have them on ebay, it's well priced, as for the stirling engines you'll have to make it your self. no retailer makes them, if your lucky you'll find the new ones which are very expesive and have the dual or quad pistons

I was wondering about the Stirling engine; where could someone find a larger one? The only ones that I have found are small something like 1/4 or 1/8 scale. Also, where did you get the big Fresnel lens?

its not cute its science or amazing

Hay I was just visiting, but what is this for? it's cute LOL.

Hi,
Ebay has a few and DIY plans are there too. If you buy one, get the fully assembled version. The kits work but sometimes are off enough to never work. Fully assembled get tested.

where did you get the stirling engine? DIY? Online? Anyone have plans for this kind? Thank you! Very cool.

Any chance you could send me that info on the solar tracker? I want to build a Stirling engine soon, and I'd like to see what it does with the tracker.

Thanks.
