Definitions
- the present invention relates to a generator with alternating linear movement based on a Stirling engine. It also relates to a process implemented in this generator.
- the Stirling engine comprises a piston-cylinder assembly containing a working fluid.
- the fluid is brought into contact with a hot source and a cold source.
- a displacer transfers the fluid to the cold source so that the pressure drops.
- the working piston compresses the fluid.
- the cycle can then start again. We can then use the reciprocating linear movement operated by the piston to produce electricity in autonomous mode.
- the document FR2510181 describes a generator comprising a Stirling engine composed of a piston and a displacer. One end of the piston is connected to the closed chamber of the engine by means of a spring element. The electromagnetic elements are arranged on the piston and inside the chamber.
- This document discloses also a Stirling engine composed of two opposing pistons enclosed in a first chamber, and a displacer enclosed in a second chamber, the two chambers communicating by means of a conduit which allows the flow of the working fluid between these two chambers.
- the device taught in this document does not allow operation close to the Stirling cycle.
- the spring elements used to secure the pistons weaken the device, and the heads of the pistons must be provided with shock absorbers in order to avoid a collision between them.
- the present invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing a generator in which the engine element is composed of a Stirling type thermal engine and the generator element of an electromagnetic assembly, the moving part of which is constituted by the piston and the displacer of the Stirling engine.
- An object of the present invention is the production of an autonomous generator capable of being installed in an electric vehicle for example while guaranteeing energy savings compared to current electrical systems, robustness and certain cleanliness.
- Another object of the invention is the production of a generator capable of producing a wide range of powers, from a few watts to a few thousand kilowatts.
- This generator set includes at least one piston in reciprocating linear motion to produce electrical energy by electromagnetic coupling with fixed magnetic elements.
- the generator set further comprises at least two displacers arranged in a chamber common to the piston so that the displacer-piston assembly constitutes two Stirling type engines operating in opposition.
- the thermal part consists of the piston and the displacers working in opposition.
- the "motor" time of one corresponds to the "resistant” time of the other.
- the equivalent of two opposing Stirling engines is obtained.
- the fact of grouping in a single chamber the piston and the displacers increases the robustness of the device.
- the chamber is a completely closed enclosure without joints.
- the working fluid, such as helium, contained in this chamber can therefore be subjected to significant pressures, favorable to the overall efficiency of the generator set and to its specific power.
- the envelope of this chamber is permeable to the magnetic field, it withstands high pressures, for example 80 bars, as well as maximum engine temperatures which can reach 650 ° C.
- the design of this engine is such that it allows operation without periodic maintenance, the only moving parts, pistons and displacers that can be greased for life.
- the assembly composed of the piston and the fixed magnetic elements constitutes an asynchronous generator.
- asynchronous generator any type of synchronous or asynchronous electric generator, with variable reluctance, with permanent magnets or with flow switching, can be used.
- the electrical part is completely integrated into the thermal part.
- the magnetic elements can be arranged along the chamber so that the reciprocating linear movement of the displacers also contributes to the production of electrical energy.
- the piston and the displacers are the rotors of the electric generator.
- the two displacers can be rigidly linked. But, preferably, they are independent with respect to each other, this makes it possible to operate the engine according to the theoretical Stirling cycle. According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, the two displacers are free in movement with respect to the chamber, unlike the systems of the prior art in which return springs are used.
- the generator set according to the invention may further comprise electromagnetic means integral with the chamber for controlling the movement of the displacers by electromagnetic coupling.
- the displacers being thus controlled like actuators, one can generate a thermal cycle very close to the theoretical Stirling cycle.
- the piloting can be done by half of the race on each of the displacers, otherwise, the piloting is done over the entire race of each of them.
- the electromagnetic means can be arranged inside or outside the chamber.
- the generator set further comprises a second piston, the two pistons thus obtained being rigidly connected and arranged on either side of the two displacers.
- This arrangement makes it possible to have a double electric generator arranged towards the ends of the engine, for example in the form of a cylinder, in zones which are easy to cool.
- heating means for supplying heat to the Stirling engine are arranged on a central zone of the cylinder.
- each piston can comprise a plurality of concentric hollow cylinders connected to one another by one end. These cylinders are intended to slide in other concentric hollow cylinders provided with fixed magnetic elements and arranged inside the chamber.
- pistons are made of conductive non-magnetic material such as aluminum or other alloy. With an asynchronous type generator, the pistons are the seat of induced currents and undergo a radial force of repulsion over their entire surface, which allows them to be lifted during a displacement.
- the generator set may include a Stirling engine, for example in the form of a cylinder, such that heating means for supplying heat to this engine are arranged on the bases of the cylinder, at the ends.
- cooling means can be arranged outside the chamber or else consist of a circulation of a fluid in tubes passing through this chamber.
- the travel of the displacers is substantially double the travel of the piston.
- other more important reports can be envisaged.
- a method for converting thermal energy into electrical energy by means of a generator.
- two displacers are piloted arranged in a chamber forming a Stirling heat engine and comprising at least one piston so that the displacer-piston assembly functions as two Stirling engines in opposition.
- a phase shift substantially equal to forty five degrees in the relative movement between the displacers and the piston.
- the displacers are capable of regenerating the working fluid contained in the chamber in order to allow the exchange of heat.
- the very body of the displacers plays the role of regenerator.

- the radiators 19a and 19b also constitute two rings arranged between the magnetic elements 17a and 17b and the electromagnetic control means 18a and 18b.
- This structure makes it possible to have two electric generators (14, 17a; 15, 17b) close to the easy to cool areas.
- This structure can also be declined in several variants in which the rigid connection 22 is removed, the electromagnetic control means 18a and 18b are enlarged, over the complete travel of the displacers and the radiators 19a and 19b can be replaced by a circulation of liquid in the breech.
- the type C structure in FIG. 3 comprises a chamber 25 in the form of a cylinder of square section.
- This chamber comprises two cylinders of square section, open and concentric 26 and 27. These cylinders are arranged inside the chamber 25 and each fixed to a base of this chamber.

- the heating means 28 and 29 are arranged at each end of the chamber 25.
- the cooling is done by circulation of a liquid in tubes 34 and 35 passing through the chamber 25.
- the piston 30 is in the shape of a large "H "lying whose connecting line is arranged between the cylinders 26 and 27.

- Radiators 49 and 50 are arranged outside the working chamber 38 on either side other of the windings 51. Heating means are placed at the ends of the working chamber 38.
- the type E structure illustrated in FIG. 5 is similar to the type D structure, but with heating means 52 provided in the center of the engine.
- the connecting means 55a, 55b, 55c and 55d slide at the inside a connecting means 58 of the two displacers.
- the stator windings 59, 60, 61 and 62 are provided close to the ends of the motor, which facilitates cooling and increases the efficiency of the electric generator.

- the rotor part is formed by a plurality of concentric hollow cylinders 64 which are nested in the free space between the projections 65.
- the sectional view therefore represents two nested rakes.
- the rotor 64 is made of a conductive non-magnetic material such as aluminum.
- the excitation of the asynchronous generator makes it possible to create induced currents in the rotor. These currents create repulsive forces leading to magnetic levitation of the rotor 64 in the free space between the projections 65, which significantly reduces friction during the reciprocating movement of the pistons.
- the surfaces of the projections 65 may include centering and guiding means useful only when the generator is started.
- FIG. 8 shows a radial section of a piston of the type E structure of Figure 7.
- This radial section shows the concentric pistons 64.
- the magnetic elements 62 are arranged on the blanks lateral, the electromagnetic generation therefore takes place in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the mechanical (or thermal) generation which is parallel to the axis of displacement of the pistons. Knowing that the electromagnetic force is approximately ten times lower than the mechanical force, the fact of bursting the piston into a plurality of concentric cylinders, as one sees on figure 7, makes it possible to appreciably increase the surface of the electromagnetic exchanges .
- the present invention therefore relates to an assembly equivalent to two StirJ-ing motors working in opposition, acting on the same piston or a piston split, in the same working room.
- the displacer is electromagnetically managed like an actuator.
- the generator set according to the invention intended for the production of electricity in autonomous mode, can be fixed or on-board, in particular, it is designed to be able to supply electricity, hybrid electric vehicles, but also, to solve any problem of electricity production in autonomous mode with fixed position with the implementation of co-generation or tri-generation systems.
- This device also makes it possible to solve the problem of storing electrical energy (batteries) and to design electric vehicles offering a reduction in consumption and a reduction in polluting emissions compared to vehicles with conventional thermal engines.
