a stirling engine calculator for those interested

Simple Performance Prediction Method -English-

just for fun I calculated a 1 liter Stirling engine filled with helium at 150 psi (1MPa) generates only 900 watts of power between the temps of 275C (hot side) and 25C (cold side)

switching it to hydrogen gives 1400 watts of power out.
