Engineers at UC Davis have built a remarkable device that creates power at night by tapping into something we rarely think ...

The Stirling engine also needs the temperature gradient to work, but its design means that this can be much lower, so it can run by setting it on a nice cup of tea. That's because it can exploit very ...

UC Davis engineering professor Jeremy Munday has developed an experimental engine that can generate mechanical power from the temperature difference between the Earth and deep space when placed ...

A research team in China has developed a high-power microwave (HPM) weapon driven by four compact and efficient Stirling engines. These engines, which efficiently convert thermal energy into ...
