Abstract :
Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that can successively replace conventional fuel by means of alternative fuel (low grade fuel or renewable energy such solar thermal energy) for power generation. The proposed system improves the total output by maximum utilization of available photovoltaic output and maximum utilization of the duration for which solar power is available based on fuzzy logic.
