Project Title:Running Hot and Cold
Abstract:
The project that we are doing is studying the efficiency of Sterling engines. Sterling engines are powered by the expansion of a gas when heated, followed by the compression of the gas when cooled.
We will model the efficiency of sterling engines at different temperature variations in order to determine their practicality. We will use Qbasic to build our model and calculate our results
We also want to build a model of a sterling engine to see which different temperatures would make it run faster.
