How It Works?
Using a highly efficient thermodynamic process, Qnergy's Free Piston Stirling Engine (FPSE) can create electricity from virtually any heat source. The heat input creates a temperature differential across the engine causing the helium inside the engine to expand and contract, which in turn drives the reciprocating motion of the piston. The FPSE directly converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into electrical power via the linear alternator inside the engine.
