- a spiral protrusion 37 is formed on the second inner peripheral side member 33 of the cooler 3.
- a structure is formed in which the second fluid F2 in the cooler 3 flows spirally from the inner side L1 position in the axial direction L to the outer side L2 position around the second sound wave passage 31. Therefore, heat can be effectively transferred from the heat storage device 4 to the cooler 3.
- the cross-sectional area of each portion of the high-temperature side flow path 22 and the low-temperature side flow path 32 shown in Embodiments 1 to 4 may be appropriately set so that the first fluid F1 or the second fluid F2 flows smoothly.
