Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thermoacoustic engine device, in particular to a thermoacoustic engine device utilizing the cold energy of liquefied natural gas. Background technique [0002] A thermoacoustic engine is a device that converts heat energy into sound work through the thermoacoustic effect. The advantages of a thermoacoustic engine are the absence of moving parts, low cost and ease of manufacture. However, the application of thermoacoustic engines is limited by their large size and low thermoacoustic conversion efficiency. In 1999, Backhaus and Swift of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the United States published an article in Nature, introducing a thermoacoustic Stirling engine developed by them. Its thermal efficiency is as high as 0.3, which is completely comparable to the traditional internal combustion engine (0.25 —0.4) and piston Stirling engines (0.20-0.38). This has aroused the great attention of scientific researchers and indu...
