A Stirling engine digital computer model developed at NASA Lewis Research Center has been configured to predict the performance of the GPU-3 single-cylinder rhombic drive engine. Revisions to the basic equations and assumptions previously reported on are discussed. Initial comparisons of the model predictions with the early results of the Lewis Research Center GPU-3 tests are made.
