Original Abstract

A successful realization of Stirling engines is conditioned by its correct conceptual design and optimal constructional and technological mode of all parts. Initial information should provide computation of real cycles of the engines. Present calculation models of thermodynamic cycles of the external heat supply engines, e.g. Stirling or Ericsson engine, arise from ideal theoretical cycles which are known from basics of thermodynamics that are, for this purpose, modified by various methods [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. High-level CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) models, arising from the description of real processes which run in external heat supply engine are used for virtual prototype of Stirling engine.
