TL;DR: In this paper, a traveling-wave thermoacoustic electric generator is proposed, which consists of a multi-stage traveling wave thermo-acoustic heat engine and linear alternators, which is capable of converting thermal energy to acoustic power with advantage of heat source flexibility, reliability and efficiency.

TL;DR: In this paper, a double-acting thermoacoustic Stirling electric generator is proposed as a new device capable of converting external heat into electric power, which can be used in many energy area, such as solar energy, industrial waste heat and so on.

TL;DR: In this paper, a traveling-wave thermoacoustic electrical generator was designed and tested, and a prototype of 1 kW traveling wave thermo-acoustic heat engine was presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a looped multiple-stage thermoacoustically-driven cryocooler system was proposed to achieve high-efficiency and compact facilities for dealing with natural gas liquefaction or boiled-gas recondensation.

TL;DR: In this article, a looped-cascade thermoacoustic driven cryocooler is proposed and theoretically studied, which is capable of achieving ideal acoustic fields by employing different-diameter resonance tubes.
