D16-C Stirling Engine Model - Low Temperature Heat Engine For Physics Education & STEM Learning

About This Product

This D16-C Stirling Engine is seriously cool - it's like having a miniature power plant right on your desk! What's amazing is it runs on low-temperature heat sources, so you don't need any open flames or electricity. Just pour some hot water (around 170??F or higher) into the base, give the flywheel a little spin after about 20 seconds, and watch this thing come to life! The dual flywheel design creates this super smooth motion that's just mesmerizing to watch. The engineering is impressive too - it's got an SUJ alloy steel power cylinder with crazy precise ??0.005mm tolerance and a 105??105mm aluminum base that conducts heat perfectly. The whole thing measures 140??105??105mm, so it's compact enough for your desk but substantial enough to really study the mechanics. This isn't just a toy - it's a real educational tool that demonstrates thermodynamics, heat transfer, and mechanical energy conversion in action. Perfect for physics teachers, STEM students, engineering enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates mechanical beauty. The engine will keep running as long as there's enough heat, so when it slows down, just add more hot water. It's completely flame-free and safe for classroom use, making it ideal for science fairs, demonstrations, or hands-on learning. The quality construction means it should last for years of demonstrations. Watching those flywheels spin smoothly, powered by nothing but heat, never gets old. It's one of those pieces that sparks curiosity and makes learning about physics actually fun and engaging rather than just theoretical!
