Characteristics of linear alternator performance under thermoacoustic-power-conversion conditions by Ibrahim, Ahmed

“…The results of the parametric study in the linear load case are compared to results of the analytical model and DELTAEC simulations and good agreement was found. The third part of this work is a sensitivity analysis that utilizes design-of-experiment methodology to estimate how the factors and their combined interactions affect the performance indices of the linear alternator under linear loading. …”
