The goal of this project was to investigate the Stirling engine and use those findings to propose a study which would either: improve an existing design, propose a new concept, or analyze specific aspects of the Stirling engine regenerator on the overall performance and efficiency of the engine. Unfortunately, due to machining errors and time constraints, our engine failed to run initially, therby making any testing impossible.
