Abstract
A cooling system for a stirling engine, a cooler composed of thermoelectric heat pump for transferring heat by electric energy, to cooling pipes which are connected from power chamber to regenerator, a cooling chamber disposed around the cooler, and an air pre-heater disposed at a side of combustion chamber, whereby the operating fluid of engine is cooled by utilizing the thermoelectric heat pump so that circulation of continuous cooling water is not required and heat taken out of the operating fluid is made to use for the pre-heating of the air to be fed to the combustion chamber.
