The Heat Engine is a very special kind of heat engine that demonstrates the conversion of heat energy into mechanical energy. It uses the unique property of Nitinol alloy to generate mechanical motion from heat. Nitinol has trained into a shape at high temperature (about 600° C) and allowed to cool to room temperature, where it can be easily deformed and welded into a loop. When heated above a transition temperature (in this application about 50° C to 70° C) the Nitinol object abruptly returns to its high-temperature shape with a substantial force that is able to drive the pulleys and thus create motion.

  • The Heat Engine is a very special kind of heat engine that demonstrates the conversion of heat energy into mechanical energy.
  • Nitinol Heat Engine uses the unique property of Nitinol alloy to generate mechanical motion from heat.
  • Based upon the work of Dr. Alfred Johnson who was granted a patent on this type of heat engine in 1977 patent # 4,055,955.
