Abstract

The invention relates to a rotary machine with a magnetically actuated piston. A rotary machine is disclosed that includes a stator defining a circumference, a first plurality of magnet arrays, a rotor, and a first piston. The first magnet array consists of a plurality of discrete magnets arranged in a first magnetic pattern around the circumference of the stator. A rotor is rotatable about an axis of rotation and defines a body. The body defines a first channel. A first piston includes a plurality of first magnetic elements and is actuated within a first channel of the rotor. A plurality of discrete magnets are arranged in a first magnetic pattern and positioned to interact with the magnetic element of the first piston to generate a first magnetic force as the rotor rotates about the axis of rotation. The first magnetic force represents a first amount of force required to actuate the first piston.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosed system relates to rotary machines, and more particularly, to rotary machines including a piston with a magnetic element, wherein the piston is actuated by a magnetic force generated when the rotor rotates. Background technique [0002] A heat engine uses energy provided in the form of heat to do work. There are various thermodynamic cycles that can be used by heat engines, such as the Carnot cycle, the Stirling cycle, and various internal combustion engine cycles, such as the Otto cycle and the Diesel cycle. All of these thermodynamic heat engines use gas as the working fluid. For example, the Stirling cycle is often used in relatively small and modestly sized cryocoolers, where the working fluid is usually helium. [0003] Stirling engines may include internal pistons for moving and compressing a working fluid and generating output power. Specifically, the piston receives work during its upstroke, or compression, and generates work du...
