Design Optimization of Flexure Springs for Free-Piston Stirling Engines and Experimental Evaluations with Fatigue Testing
The free-piston Stirling engine is a closed-cycle regenerative heat engine that converts heat energy into mechanical work, and requires a spring element for vibratory operations of the displacer and power pistons. In this study, the geometry of the flexural spring design was optimized through struct...
