Abstract: This paper reports development of a Thermoacoustic Stirling Engine and experimental investigation carried out using Nitrogen gas as the working gas. Experimental setup mainly consists of a Regenerator Assembly which is the heart of the designed engine and is composed of a Regenerator, hot and cold heat exchangers. Regenerator is sandwiched between hot and cold heat exchangers. Brass circular punched meshes are closely packed within the hot and cold heat exchangers to improve the heat transfer rate and Regenerator tube is packed with stainless steel meshes. Experiment is carried for different working pressures of Nitrogen and for each working pressure Onset temperature, Pressure Amplitude, Frequency of oscillations are measured under no load condition.
