Abstract: The activities of Philips Laboratories on Task I, Stirling System Conceptual Design, during this reporting period include: (1) typifying the three sites to be studied by extracting data from the raw information supplied; (2) establishing typical performance characteristics for fossil-fueled Philips Stirling prime movers; and (3) enlisting (via subcontract) the expertise of a firm in the power generation, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning fields to assist in accomplishing the conceptualization effort of Task I in a timely fashion. The three sites selected for study were a residential complex in Jersey City, New Jersey; a military hospital in Fairfield, California; and a Federal office building in Anchorage, Alaska. For each site, typical heating, cooling and electrical profiles were selected for a full day in each season of the year. These demand profiles were to be used to characterize the sites for the remainder of the study.
