The 3B Scientific U10060 Deluxe Stirling Engine has transparent parts, a black top plate, and rotation speed of 80 rpm. This model engine demonstrates the design and operation of a low-temperature Stirling engine for students studying thermodynamics. The transparent glass power cylinder and acrylic displacement cylinder and flywheel provide visibility of the power piston, displacement mechanism, and crankshaft drive. It operates by heat or solar energy absorbed through its black top plate. The engine rotates at 80 rpm when the temperature difference between the base and top plates is 10 degrees C. The model measures 138mm high and 110mm in diameter, and the flywheel is 110mm in diameter. Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology. 3B Scientific manufactures anatomical models, simulators, charts, and other training materials for use in scientific, medical, and patient education. The company, founded in 1948 and headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, meets International Organization of Standardization (ISO) standard 9001: 2008.
