STIRLING ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM AND SHIP EQUIPPED WITH STIRLING ENGINE

摘要

This Stirling engine control system is characterized by being equipped with: a Stirling engine (10) that uses heat to operate; an electrical generator (20) linked to the Stirling engine (10); an inverter/converter (51) connected to the electrical generator (20); an inverter/converter control means (52) that controls the inverter/converter (51); a Stirling engine starting/stopping means (53) that controls the stopping/starting of the Stirling engine (10); and a control means (54) that controls the inverter/converter control means (52) and the Stirling engine starting/stopping means (53). The Stirling engine (10) can be started in a stable manner, and the Stirling engine (10) can be stopped reliably and quickly.
