Abstract

Maximum power and efficiency at the maximum power point of an endoreversible Stirling heat engine with finite heat capacitance rate of external fluids in the heat source/sink reservoirs with regenerative losses are treated. It was found that the thermal efficiency depends on the regenerator effectiveness and the internal irreversibility resulting from the working fluid for a given value of reservoir temperature. It was also concluded that it is desirable to have larger heat capacity of the heat sink in comparison to the heat source reservoir for higher maximum power output and lower heat input.
