Adopt the thermoacoustic engine of gas working medium with respect to tradition, in the utility model thermoacoustic engine, the gas-liquid phase transition process will occur in liquid piston working medium, and therefore reasonably liquid piston working medium is selected extremely important.We plant working medium for more than ten and carry out desirable thermodynamic cycle performance evaluation shown in Figure 3 under 300K and 330K cold ﹠ heat source temperature conditions.The analysis result demonstration, normal point and critical point temperature are relatively high, and the larger working medium of gasification latent heat can obtain the higher thermal efficiency; And the larger working medium of saturation pressure is conducive to realize higher unit gas volume energy density.Comprehensive two aspects, difluoromethane CH 2F 2, ammonia NH 3, five fluorine monochlorethane CF 2ClCF 3, octafluoropropane CF 3CF 2CF 3That comparatively desirable working medium is selected.
When the stationary mode gas-liquid phase transition thermoacoustic engine that low-grade heat source drives moves, at first need vacuumize thermo-acoustic engine system original air in removal system; Thermo-acoustic engine system after find time injects working medium by the high-pressure working medium steel cylinder afterwards, makes medium level be between primary heater 1 and the first cooler 3 and secondary heater 8 and the second cooler 6.Then, open driving heat source and cooling water, cooling action due to cooling water, the first cooler 3 and the second cooler 6 remain at room temperature, and driving heat source is inputted heat by primary heater 1 and secondary heater 8 to system, the temperature of primary heater 1 and secondary heater 8 raises, and in system, power pressure also increases, and the working medium in system is produced certain disturbance.When the temperature difference between heater and cooler surpasses certain threshold value, due to the heat transfer effect between working medium and heater and cooler, produce the Sonic heat changing of gas-liquid phase transition, partial heat energy is converted to the sound merit, self oscillations occurs in working medium in thermoacoustic engine, thermoacoustic engine enters normal working.At this moment, the to-and-fro motion between primary heater 1 and the first cooler 3 and secondary heater 8 and the second cooler 6 of the liquid level of liquid piston 5, the thermodynamic cycle process (see figure 3) of periodic experience isobaric heat absorption, adiabatic expansion, isobaric heat release, adiabatic compression realizes that heat energy is to the conversion of sound merit.
