Stirling engines are heat engines that directly convert heat energy into mechanical energy. How they work is they have a piston that travels back and forth from a hot side to a cold side. When the cylinder travels over the hot side >[!info] # What are Stirling Engines?

Anyways, MARVEL also uses an interesting drum based system to do power control. Anyways, MARVEL also uses an interesting drum based system to do power control.
