Ecological Optimization of Thermoacoustic Engine with the Characteristic Time

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article used ecological function as an indicator to analyze the relationship between the ecology target value and the characteristic time, obtained the characteristic time value in the maximum ecology function value, made a numerical calculation between ecology target value and the characteristic time. It shows that the ecological function value has a change process with the characteristic time that increases firstly and then decreases, which verifies the calculation results. Simultaneously, it is analyzed the impact to ecology target value with the temperature gradient and other factors. It could provide some help to future research.
