Dynamic analysis on the scroll expander for Stirling engine

스털링 엔진용 스크롤 팽창기의 동적 거동해석

For 10 kW-class Stirling engine using scroll expander and scroll compressor, considerations on thermal expansion of the fixed and orbiting scroll members of the scroll expander due to high gas temperature at the expander inlet has resulted in adopting of the keys between the fixed scroll and main frame for the fixed scroll side and spring type insertion between the orbiting scroll base plate and supporting holders for orbiting scroll side. Dynamic analysis on the fixed and orbiting scroll members and the shafts of the scroll expander showed that using of these devices for complying thermal expansion caused large variations of the forces acting on the fixed scroll keys and on the power transmitting shafts and also on the shaft bearings.
