Journal ArticleDOI
Thermomechanical generator: an efficient means of converting heat to electricity at low power levels
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report results of research at Harwell on thermal energy conversion, which has led to the successful development of an efficient heat engine/alternator system 1 capable of delivering several tens of watts of alternating current.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A new electrical power source for long term unattended operation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report results of research a t Harwell on thermal energy conversion, which began i n 1966 and has led to the development of an e f f i c i e n t heat engine/alternator system capable of delivering s e v e r a l t e n s o f w a t e r n a t s o r n g s u r - faces, so requires no lubrication, and is capable of operating continuously for many years.
