Thermoacoustics (TA) deals with the conversion of heat into sound and vice versa. The device that transfers energy from a low temperature reservoir to a high temperature one by utilizing acoustic work is called TA cooler (TAC). The main components of a typical TAC are a resonator, a porous regenerator (e.g. stack of parallel plates) and two heat exchangers. The thermoacoustic phenomenon takes place in the regenerator where a nonzero temperature gradient is imposed, and interacts with the sound wave. The low temperature at the cold end of TAC can be used to condense water from the humid air and …

Thermoacoustics (TA) deals with the conversion of heat into sound and vice versa. Device that converts heat into acoustic work is called TA heat engine, while the device that transfers energy from a low temperature reservoir to a high temperature one by utilizing acoustic work is called TA cooler. A simple construction of TA cooler includes an acoustic speaker, a resonator tube and a regenerator stack in which the temperature gradient is being imposed. Such a TA cooler has several advantages over traditional compression/expansion cooling machine such as its simplicity of the construction, high reliability and lack of toxic refrigerants. …
