I remember reading about sterling engines when I was a teenager because Dean Kamen was going to use them to change the world (And yes, I knew who Dean Kamen was before the Sigway came out. For that matter, he was working on sterling engines before then as well). But in spite of hearing about them and having them stick in my memory, I never had a good grasp of how they worked until I watched the video below. As far as I know, Kamen has never brought out a product that actually uses them in spite of his infatuation with them. But at least Sweden is using them to make really quite submarines.
