Abstract

When a freight ship is in a harbor, a Diesel engine generator is operated to supply electric energy in the ship. Exhaust gas from the Diesel engine causes air pollution in the harbor area. We have tried to develop a heat recovery system with a Stirling engine generator. In this paper, we report the performance of a Stirling engine system. Three Prototype Stirling engines were operated with the exhaust gas from a Diesel engine, and got generated power of 1.3 kW with the temperature of the exhaust gas of 400 C.
