A horizontal Stirling engine is a type of heat engine that works by harnessing temperature differences to produce mechanical energy. It consists of a closed system with a fixed amount of gas, which is heated and cooled in a cyclic manner. The engine's operation relies on the principle of constant-volume gas law, allowing it to efficiently convert heat into work without any moving parts coming into direct contact with the hot or cold sources.
