Hot Air Stirling Engine Motor Electricity Generator

This balance-style Stirling engine model demonstrates the principles of thermodynamics and mechanical energy conversion. Constructed from electroplated zinc alloy, it features high-precision components such as a crankshaft, lever mechanism, belt drive, and worm drive for smooth and stable operation. Once fueled with 95 percent alcohol, the engine heats up and begins running, generating electricity to power an LED light. Originally invented by Robert Stirling in 1816, Stirling engines have been studied for their efficiency and alternative energy applications. This model requires no assembly and serves as an interactive educational tool and a one-of-a-kind collectors piece.
