Each thermoacoustic engine 140 includes a first room temperature heat exchanger 150, M thermoacoustic components 170, and a second room temperature heat exchanger 160, where M is any positive integer. Each thermoacoustic assembly 170 includes a first thermal buffer tube 171, a low temperature end heat exchanger 172, a regenerator 173, a high temperature end heat exchanger 174, and a second thermal buffer tube 175 connected in series.

In each thermoacoustic engine 140, the waste heat source sequentially passes through the high-temperature-end heat exchangers 174 of the M thermoacoustic assemblies 170 in each thermoacoustic engine 140, and the heat of the heat source is gradually absorbed and the temperature is reduced, so that the temperature of the high-temperature-end heat exchangers 174 passing through is gradually reduced; the temperature of the heat source is reduced to room temperature after the heat source passes through the last stage of high-heat-end heat exchanger. The cold source, particularly the LNG cold source, sequentially passes through the low-temperature-end heat exchangers 172 of the M thermo-acoustic assemblies 170 in each group of thermo-acoustic engines 140 in the opposite direction of the waste heat source, and the cold source absorbs heat step by step to raise the temperature, so that the temperature of the passing low-temperature-end heat exchangers 172 is raised step by step; the temperature rises to room temperature after the cold source passes through the last stage of the low temperature side heat exchanger 172.

Meanwhile, the thermoacoustic engine 140 generates acoustic power under the temperature difference gradient of the unit, and the acoustic power is sequentially transmitted to the next stage to be converted into electric power.
Further, a temperature gradient is formed at two ends of the regenerator 173 of each thermo-acoustic assembly 170, and each thermo-acoustic assembly 170 self-oscillates under the respective temperature gradient, so as to convert heat energy into acoustic work. The acoustic work produced by the thermoacoustic assembly 170 is transferred in the positive direction of the temperature gradient to the second thermal buffer tube 175, the second room temperature heat exchanger 160, and the resonator tube of the group of thermoacoustic assemblies 170, and finally to the linear motor 130. The linear motor 130 converts a part of the acoustic power into electric power, and the rest of the acoustic power is transmitted to each thermoacoustic assembly 170 in the next thermoacoustic engine 140 through the resonance tube, and the rest of the acoustic power is amplified after passing through the first room temperature heat exchanger 150 and the first thermal buffer tube 171 and passing through the heat regenerator 173, and the acoustic power is generated under the temperature difference gradient of the unit and is sequentially transmitted to the next stage, so that the acoustic power is converted into electric power.
Further, in each thermoacoustic engine 140, the waste heat source higher than TH sequentially passes through the high-temperature-end heat exchanger 174 of the thermoacoustic assembly 170 in each thermoacoustic engine 140, and the heat of the heat source is gradually absorbed and the temperature is reduced, so that the temperature of the passing high-temperature-end heat exchanger 174 is gradually reduced; the heat source is reduced to room temperature TA after passing through the last high heat end heat exchanger. The cold source with the temperature of TC sequentially passes through the low-temperature end heat exchangers 172 of the thermoacoustic assemblies 170 in each group of thermoacoustic engines 140 in the opposite direction of the waste heat source, and the cold source absorbs heat step by step to increase the temperature, so that the temperature of the passing low-temperature end heat exchangers 172 is increased step by step; the temperature reaches the room temperature TA after the cold source passes through the last stage of low temperature side heat exchanger 172. Therefore, a temperature gradient is formed at both ends of the regenerator 173 of the thermoacoustic assembly 170 in each group of thermoacoustic engine 140, and the system self-excited starts to vibrate under the temperature gradient, thereby realizing the conversion from heat energy to acoustic power.
Further, the acoustic work produced by the thermoacoustic assembly 170 is transferred in the positive direction of the temperature gradient to the second thermal buffer tube 175, the second room temperature heat exchanger 160, and the resonator tube of the set of thermoacoustic assemblies 170, and finally to the by-pass linear motor 130. The linear motor 130 converts a part of the acoustic power into electric power, and the rest of the acoustic power is transmitted to the next group of thermoacoustic engines 140 through the resonance tubes to repeat the above processes. Therefore, the system can recycle the sound power, thereby improving the efficiency of the whole machine.
