Stirling engine

[wtrouser]

Thanks! There's something aesthetically pleasing about a simple clay render, though the version with lines looks good as well. Sorry that I can't critique your model, as I don't know anything about this engine. But I like models/renders of mechanical objects like this because it forces me to imagine how the bloody thing works!

Here is the textured version...

Really nice modeling and render

Had no idea what a Stirling Engine was until I googled it. Interesting.

One question - while I found several models that were similar to yours, they all had "arms" attached to both "pistons" and "wheels" (I'm sure my terminology isn't correct but you get the idea). Will yours work the way it is built? Just curious

They are here too. Here is another view:

I used this one as a reference.

Very tricky!
This one works between the hand's temperature gradient difference and the air!
