Description

Stirling engine fans were extremely popular during the 1800s particularly in hot climates where they were used as cooling fans. The compact Windjammer takes inspiration from these retro models.
It works using a bespoke alcohol burner which can be filled with either denatured alcohol such as Methylated Spirits or bio ethanol fuel. Read more about bio ethanol fuel here.
When the burner is filled, the engine will run for approximately 12 hours. At peak output it moves in excess of 442 CFM (cubic feet per minute) of air.
The compact Windjammer is an intriguing Stirling engine fan with an engaging design, and its versatile styling allows you to use it on any table top.
The built in essential oil diffuser is an added feature which you can use to spread your favourite fragrance throughout your home or office.

Stirling Engine Design
Warpfive table fans are small precision engineered Stirling engines, which are 100% mechanical and do not have any electric components which may stop working if overheated. Consequently they are extremely reliable and with care will last a lifetime.
Every engine is precision engineered and hand built with durable materials like stainless steel, aluminium, brass and Borosilicate glass. As a result they operate quietly – typically 12dB.
Advanced materials (such as graphite) and low friction bearings ensure low maintenance, plus heat flow is optimised with a silver thermodynamic heat plate.
Stirling engine table fans have a high power output and low start up speed so they move large volumes of air.
Every engine is hand-crafted, assembled and tested in Great Britain.

Mark –
Got the Windjammer 2 today. I absolutely love it. Thank you – good job! I have a fairly large collection of Stirling engines but no fan – until now. It’s a wonderful and much appreciated addition. I’ve been running it for the last half hour – it’s perfect. The workmanship is gorgeous. It will be frequently enjoyed for a very long time
