Research on a Micro Cogeneration System with an Automatic Load-Applying Entity

The article concerns the testbed research of a micro cogeneration system based on a Stirling engine equipped with an automatic load-applying system. The article presents the influence that the load current has on acceleration of vibration of a micro cogeneration system’s body. The research was conducted while using nitrogen as the working gas. Significant number of tests offered the possibility of providing the description of the results in statistical terms while using such measures as kurtosis, coefficient of variation, the asymmetry coefficient as well as the probability density function. The research offers the possibility of concluding whether the completed experiment is repeatable as well as for determining the impact that selected load changes have on acceleration of the micro cogeneration system’s vibration.
