Engineers at the University of California, Davis, have invented a device that can generate mechanical power at night by ...

This engine won't be fueling interstellar missions, but still finds an unexpected way to use deep space energy to generate ...

Deppe and Munday mounted a simple Stirling engine on a radiative cooling panel. They placed the setup on the ground, letting ...

Researchers have created a device that generates mechanical power at night by harnessing the natural temperature difference between warm ground and the cold of outer space. Engineers at the, Davis, ha ...

A tiny, particle-sized engine that runs at temperatures approaching the innermost core of the Sun could open a window into ...

Engineers are using the temperature difference between Earth and space to power a low-temperature Stirling engine that drives ...

Here’s What You Need to Remember: Though complex, the Saab explains how the Stirling engine works, “in a Stirling engine, the necessary heat is produced in a separate combustion chamber and ...

Earlier this week, we wrote about setbacks at some Silicon Valley companies with new solar technology. They’re built on real science and work in the labs, but they’re grappling with the real-world ...
