Our environment needs to be protected and technology can make huge contributions in many sectors, such as renewable energy, in the fight against climate change and global warming. At Solar MEMS we have applied all the know-how accumulated through years of experience in the aerospace sector and focused it on the technology of solar sensors for terrestrial purposes. What is more, we have been able ...
The cutting-edge technology that Solar Mems´applies to its high-precision solar sensors is widely used in space by the main international organizations in the sector, such as the European Space Agency. These remarkable achievements were only made possible by relying on a team of such highly motivated and qualified experts as Manuel Rodríguez, the CTO of Solar Mems. We interviewed him ...
A Qnergy Stirling-Based Power Generator reached 20,000 hours (more than two continuous years) of uninterrupted, maintenance-free operation. ...

The school also proposed a diverse range of clean energy projects, including a 40kW solar PV system, a 5kW wind turbine, a 5kW micro-hydro demonstration project, a 3kW Stirling engine and a pedal- powered generator, all connected to a 21kW battery bank. ...
The GENSETS program intends to use the 12 projects to focus on internal combustion engines, Stirling engines, microturbines, and solidstate devices to develop one-kilowatt CHP systems that are energy efficient and affordable for residential homes. ...
In this paper, the study of the Stirling engine cycle is carried out with a motorist–oriented viewpoint: instead of the working gas mass, the reference parameters are those linked to engineering constraints; they are the maximum pressure, the maximum volume, the extreme temperatures and the overall thermal conductance; the adjustable parameters ...
Stirling engines are heat engines that operate on a closed thermodynamic regenerative cycle and are used as power systems, refrigerators or heat pumps. ...
A detailed design optimisation study of an endo- and exoirreversible Stirling engine is carried out. After energetic, entropic and exergetic analyses of the hot-end and cold-end heat exchangers of the engine, an adapted model of the engine, including the heat exchangers and the regenerator, is proposed to optimise the ...
