From David: I would also take a second look at the net process energy balance.   If aluminum is required as fuel, you would be in big trouble as it takes a lot of energy to obtain the fuel.  Years ago I made H gas by putting lye and water into a jar with aluminum foil.  My friends and I used

yes, but it is a method to use aluminum as a vector fuel for hydrogen, provided you have a cheap way to transform Aluminum Hydroxide into Aluminium... today not so cheap, but with LENR electricity, maybe the usual method is OK... but hydrogen also is a vector, so... many indirection... just to

While I don't think Stirling are good for larger sizes I do think that they might work well for 0.2-3kW. Stirling engines were in large volume production 100 years ago for small output applications (though they were big and heavy), and the cost is less of a negative factor for small sizes if they
