Continuing Stirling engine development at General Motors has uncovered advantages of the powerplant never before fully appreciated. Smoke, odor, noise, and exhaust emission measurements indicate the attractiveness of the engine for applications in a “social” environment. Design details, particularly the external combustion system, are described here only in relation to low emission level. Measurements indicate that smoke and odor are practically undetectable. Sound measurements demonstrate the relative quietness of the engine. Additional data show that exhaust emissions, while very low, exhibit a strong dependence on burner design, air-fuel mixture ratio, burner inlet temperature, and exhaust recirculation.Continuing Stirling engine development at General Motors has uncovered advantages of the powerplant never before fully appreciated.
