ABSTRACT:
A hot gas toroidal, oscillating, close coupled Stirling cycle piston engine, whereby a gas is heated in an external combustion system and expanded in a hot cylinder. Thus, the expanding gas moves the piston to its bottom or extended position in the cylinder, exposing ports which exhaust the gas through a regenerator-cooler and into a cold cylinder. The cooled gas is then compressed in the cold cylinder and forced back through said regenerator-cooler into the hot cylinder to be reheated and expanded.
