Discover the principles of thermodynamics with this Free-Piston Stirling Engine Model, a hands-on science project designed for physics learning, mechanical demonstrations, and desktop display.
Built from aluminum alloy, quartz glass, and a natural bamboo base, the model combines durable construction with a compact mechanical design. Suitable for science enthusiasts, collectors, students, and hobbyists, it demonstrates the operation of a free-piston external combustion engine in an interactive way.
To operate, heat the cylinder using 95% alcohol fuel for approximately 30 seconds, then gently spin the flywheel to start the engine. The model supports both forward and reverse operation.
