Re: Model of a Stirling engine

[Michaël Kummert <kummert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Stefan & Gernot,

In case you did not see it, another TRNSYS user (Benoit Sicre) wrote in 
an email to the list that he was working on a stirling engine model:
http://sel.me.wisc.edu/trnsys/mailinglist/archive2003/msg00081.html

The developers of the STEC library are also interested in such projects. 
 For details and contact information:

Regards,

Michaël Kummert
