Abstracts: The thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle or a diesel cycle engine is less than that of Carnot engine operating between same temperature limits. The reason for this is that for cycles other than Carnot, heat is added at a temperature lower than maximum temperature and rejected at a much higher than minimum temperature. The Stirling engine uses a closed cycle, so it can be operated from low energy source. Therefore, the Stirling engine is a candidate for developing mechanical power from energy sources in the range of 100° to 300 °C energy sources that are in range of solar, geothermal, flue gases and waste heat. So our objective is: with the use of fossil fuel found in farms, run the Stirling engine and the output power is used to run a pump
