ABSTRACT:
In the pressure oscillation generator1, self-excited vibration is generated in a work transfer tube30by heating a heat input section22and also a resonator50is resonated, and when a work is inputted into a heat exchanger20, the work is amplified by the heat exchanger20, and is transferred to the heat transfer tube30and is then outputted to an output section40. Because of the configuration, an outputted work can be amplified to a work larger than the inputted work, so that, by using a portion of the outputted work as energy for driving the cylinder10, the pressure oscillation generator1can continuously be driven only by heating and without using electric energy generated by a large scale solar system or the like, which enables substantial size reduction of the pressure oscillation generator1.
