Stirling

The Stirling Engine Society is an organisation dedicated to the promotion, study, and development of Stirling engines.

The society involves a community of enthusiasts, engineers, researchers, and hobbyists who share a common interest in Stirling engine technology. They may engage in activities such as:

Research and Development: Members often collaborate on projects to improve Stirling engine efficiency and performance, exploring new applications and technologies.

Workshops and Conferences: The society organises events where members can present their work, share knowledge, and discuss the latest advancements in Stirling engine technology.

Publications: The society produces occasional newsletters, journals, or other publications to disseminate information about Stirling engines, including technical articles, project reports, and news about upcoming events.

Educational Outreach: The society often aims to educate the public and aspiring engineers about Stirling engines, offering resources, tutorials, and demonstrations.

Networking: It provides a platform for members to connect with others who have similar interests, fostering collaboration and the exchange of ideas.

The Stirling Engine Society plays an important role in keeping the interest in Stirling engines alive and pushing the boundaries of what these engines can achieve.

Stirling Engine Society Newsletters

The Stirling Society was founded in January 1997, membership is invited from anyone with an interest in Hot Air or Stirling Engines and an occasional newsletter is sent to all members. Although the society does not have formal meetings as such, members attend and exhibit at model engineering and vintage machinery shows in the UK. There is an annual get together for members in April, for the past 10 years this has been held at Kew Steam Museum, London.

The subscription is for 1 year.
