Air to air recouperator
TL;DR: In this paper, a rotary wheel heat exchanger uses a random matrix media comprising a small diameter heat-retentive fibrous material, which provides high thermal efficiency in exchanging heat between inlet and exhaust air streams.

Apparatus and method for the speed or power control of stirling type machines
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method for the control of the speed, stroke and power output of a Stirling engine by using a valving arrangement to control the working gas flow.

Self pressurizing, crank-type Stirling engine having reduced loading of displacer drive linkages
Bruce J. Chagnot,James Gary Wood +1 more
TL;DR: An improved crank-type Stirling engine with a gas spring between the displacer and the housing or alternatively the power piston is discussed in this article, where the gas spring mechanism is designed to operate as a pump to charge the engine to operating pressure with atmospheric air during initial start up operation.
