Summary

A thermocompressor is a compressor that transforms directly the heat release by a source in an energy of pressure without intermediate mechanical work. It is a conversion of the Stirling engine in driven machine in order that the piston that provides the work has been suppressed. The article presents the analytical and numerical analyses of heat and mass transfer modelling in the different volumes of the thermocompressor. This engine comprises a free piston displacer that separates cold and hot gas.
