Secure control system for multistage thermo acoustic micro-CHP generator

A method of responding to or controlling facility power requirements using a thermoacoustic power device, comprising:

• a. determining energy assets in a facility, wherein power requirements and a unique electrical signature of said energy assets are identified, wherein said energy assets comprise electrical appliances, heating appliances, and cooling appliances;
• b. responding to or controlling said energy assets using an appropriately programmed controller, wherein said controller controls said energy assets across a computer network, wherein said controller comprises a security system protocol;
• c. measuring usage of said energy assets using sensors, wherein said sensors comprise a temperature sensor or an electrical usage sensor, wherein said electrical usage sensor measures a load-response signal of an on/off operation of said energy assets, wherein said load-response signal identifies a specific energy asset by said controller, wherein said controller monitors energy usage of said energy assets, wherein said controller uses a monitored temperature, and said energy usage of said energy assets monitored by said controller to determine aggregate energy needs of said energy assets;
• and
• d. using said thermoacoustic power device to generate electricity and/or heat to said facility according to said monitored temperature, and said monitored energy assets, wherein said thermoacoustic power device is controlled by said controller, wherein a motor of said thermoacoustic power device receives an input signal to at least one motor transducer to create an acoustic wave in said thermoacoustic power device using a motor piston, where heat is input to said thermoacoustic power device from an external source and converted to acoustic energy through a first set of heat exchangers and a first porous media at a first stage of said thermoacoustic power device to amplify said acoustic wave and propagate said acoustic wave through a first open span in said thermoacoustic power device, wherein additional heat is input to said thermoacoustic power device from said external source and converted to additional acoustic energy through a second set of heat exchangers and a second porous media at a second stage of said thermoacoustic power device to further amplify said acoustic wave and propagate said acoustic wave through a second open span in said thermoacoustic power device, wherein mechanical energy from said further amplified acoustic wave moves a generator piston in a generator to convert said acoustic energy to electricity using at least one alternator transducer in said generator, wherein electrical output power of said alternator is tuned using a capacitance and a resistive load and is directed into a system to power electronics, wherein a portion of said electrical output power is used to drive said motor to create a subsequent acoustic wave to sustain power generation of said thermoacoustic power device, wherein excess electricity generated by said generator is disposed for power use, wherein said thermoacoustic power device is further tuned using the power electronics to provide more or less electrical power and heat that is dependent on user requirements.
