Energy converter systems as based on free-piston Stirling engine for conversion of supplied thermal energy into a linear movement for supplying directly to a linear generator for conversion into electrical energy, suffer from the relatively high costs and ...

The invention relates to an energy converter (1) comprising a free-piston Stirling engine (2) and a linear generator (3) that is directly coupled thereto and comprises at least two coils (11, 12, 13, 14). The voltage is induced in said coils. A circuit dev...
