FIELD: heat power engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be used to supply special application objects, for instance, fortification, underwater and mobile complexes. According to invention, thermit fuel charges in section of heat generator are ignited by igniter. Heat liberated at combustion of fuel is transmitted from high-temperature area owing to heat conduction of fuel and its combustion products to walls of heat generator. Heat from walls of generator, owing to heat conduction, is transmitted to walls of heater of Stirling engine, thus providing starting of engine. With Stirling engine operating, mechanical energy is transformed into electric energy by means of electric generator. Cooler through which cooling agent circulates is used for cooling Stirling engine.
EFFECT: improved reliability and facilitated starting of power-generating plant with Stirling engine.
