International Stirling Engine Conference - 14th ISEC 09

The 14th ISEC was held in Groningen from 16th to 18th November 2009 at the same time as the Energy Delta Convention 2009, an important event attended by a large number of participants from government, science and business from all over the world. The combination of the two events was a great opportunity for opening the Stirling Engine community to important manufacturers and users in the energy field. http://www.stirlinginternational.org/isec_2009/

International Stirling Engine Conference - 13th ISEC 07

The International Stirling Engine Conference, ISEC, that began in Great Britain in 1982 has grown and flourished over the years. Japan successfully hosted the 4th ISEC in 1988, the 7th ISEC in 1995 and the 13th ISEC in 2007. At this third conference in Tokyo, Japan, more than eighty technical papers concerning the Stirling engine and Stirling cycle machines have been presented and about 200 participants have been involved in active discussions on technological development. www.isec-info.org/isec2007/

International Stirling Engine Conference - 12th ISEC 05

ISEC takes place each other year and the 12th ISEC continues the highly successful series begun in 1982. This conference has received worldwide recognition as the major international forum devoted to the exchange of the most recent Stirling cycle machines research, development and demonstration results. The ISEC brings together experts and interested parties from the wide mechanical and power engineering R & D community and provides an excellent opportunity for interactions among delegates. www.dur.ac.uk/isec.2005/

International Stirling Engine Conference - 11th ISEC 03

Commercial applications of Stirling engines in the energy market have been the goal of extensive research efforts within the “Stirling engine community”. The unique capacity of Stirling engines to operate with unconventional fuels makes them particularly suitable for producing electricity from new primary energy sources. Moreover, Stirling engines are a promising option for combined heat and power production with biomass fuels. The need to increase the use of renewable energy sources has led to policy actions promoting their use in many countries. http://dma.ing.uniroma1.it/isec2003/
