Abstract

See full text

A thermoacoustic electric generator system includes: a thermoacoustic engine provided in an annular tube; a turbine provided in a branched tube and rotating when receiving acoustic energy, which is generated by thermoacoustic oscillation of working gas in the thermoacoustic engine; and a generator for converting kinetic energy, which is generated by rotation of the turbine, to electric energy. The turbine is provided at a specified position that belongs to a region between a first position and a second position in each region of the branched tube, the first position being an intermediate position between one end and the other end, and the second position being an intermediate position between the first position and the other end.
