Experimental Studies of Radial Wave Thermoacoustic Engines. Navy Environmentally Safe Ships Program.

Abstract

The horizontal plate prime mover has been constructed and reported at the fall meeting of the ASA in Austin, TX. The analysis of horizontal plate thermoacoustic engines has been completed and submitted for publication in JASA and a theoretical comparison of plane and radial wave thermoacoustic engines was reported in Austin. Analysis of vertical plate thermoacoustic engines has recently been completed and a manuscript is being reviewed. Preliminary vertical plate prime mover results were reported at the spring meeting of the ASA in Washington, DC.
