Abstract

An optimal power analysis is conducted on an endoreversible Stirling cycle with perfect regeneration. The endoreversible cycle is one in which the external heat transfer processes are the only irreversible processes of the cycle. Maximum power and efficiency at maximum power are obtained for the cycle based upon higher and lower temperature bounds. These results provide additional criteria for use in the study and performance evaluation of Stirling engines.
