This Stirling engine is driven by the Temperature Differential between the top and bottom panels. The simplest way to create enough temperature differential is placing it atop a mug of hot water. Rotating speed highly depends on the differential: the higher, the faster. Our experiment indicates that it can rotate at a speed of around 600-1000 RPM when placed on a mug of boiled water.
The Operating Temperature Differential of this model is around 27-34°F, much lower than most of the engines on the market. It can continuously rotate for 20-25 minutes on a cup of 140°F water, safer for kids. Please note when you use 140°F water (its steam actually) within a 250ml tea cup as heat source, the temperature of bottom panel is about 122°F.
Our technical team has taken several effective steps to improve its performance: employ magnets to interact between power piston and displacer to eliminate mechanical friction effectively while make the whole structure simple and stable; a self-lubricated graphite power piston to reduce friction and increase robustness; a stainless steel string as connecting rod between the crank on the flywheel and the power piston to reduce more friction(less contact area). It will be an eye-catching desktop toy & gift for everyone.
