Stirling (or †Stirling's) cycle
Stirling (or †Stirling's) cycle, the thermodynamic cycle on which an ideal Stirling engine would operate, consisting of an isothermal expansion, a drop in temperature at constant volume by giving up heat to a regenerator, an isothermal compression, and an increase in temperature at constant volume by gaining heat from the regenerator; Stirling (or †Stirling's) engine, originally, an external-combustion air engine invented by Stirling ( Brit. Pat. 4081 (1816)); more widely, a mechanical device used to provide either power or refrigeration and operating on a closed regenerative cycle, the working fluid being cyclically compressed and expanded at different temperatures; also elliptical as Stirling.
