After two and a half years of operating experience, including extreme stress tests in the field, we may draw a very positive balance: alphagamma® technology is indeed the key to maintenance-free combustion engines. Maintenance-free, at least regarding to the...
As part of the research project “Lean gas CHP”, we installed our mobile Stirling CHP on the site of a landfill and powered it with landfill gas over a period of 4 weeks in January 2020. Unlike previous field tests, the cooling circuit had to be maintained...
On occasion of an experimental installation in an agricultural biogas plant, BIOENERGY 2020+ conducted comprehensive analyses of overall performance and exhaust gas quality. In addition to carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide, the organic hydrocarbons, the carcinogenic...
Methane is extremely damaging to the climate: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has stated in its 5th Assessment Report AR5 that, within an observation period of 20 years, methane has an 84 times higher global warming potential (GWP) compared to...
The Reinhalteverband Schärding/Inn kindly provided us a sewage gas connection and we were able to set up our mobile Stirling CHP right next to the company building for a test period of 4 weeks. The main goal of the trial was to determine the behaviour of the burner,...
A complete Stirling CHP unit built on a Trailer is available to us for the purposes of external testing as well as for fairs and exhibitions. The mobile CHP can be equipped with either a Frauscher alphagamma® Stirling Type G600i or G600a and includes gas filter, gas...
Recently we disassembled a machine after 1000 hours of operating time on the test stand in order to be able to extrapolate the expected maintenance-free operating time based on the wear data. Neither on the cylinder surface nor on the piston skirt measurable wear and...
Thanks to the activities of the BHKW-Fachforum, we can put the lecture of Mr. Frauscher for the Stirling Forum 2016 in Garching online. Please forgive us that the lecture is not quite up-to-date with our recent development and is only available in German. Here is the...
“For us an on-going contact and exchange with the relevant educational institutions is essential. Also to be able to find talents at an early stage for future cooperation,” describes Ing. Josef Frauscher the concept of the Education Day. Thirty-five teachers and...
On 27 September 2018, final measurements for the second year of research in the course of the research project “Lean Gas CHP” were made in cooperation with our research partner, Bioenergy 2020+. The results show a high level of development of the prototype CHP...
