The students had wanted to build their own original designed model engines. But we had to suggest them that they build the same (or little reformed) engine of the delivered plans, because we did not have enough term.
First day of the class, we explained the students about the principle of the Stirling engine, and show them an operating model engine. On and after second day, the students built parts of the engine earnestly.
We requested them to submit the simple reports after completing to build the engines. The contents of the report were follows;
(1) Impressions of building the model Stirling engine
(2) About energy source (or engine) in the future.
