The efficiency of stirling cycle is less than carnot cycle because the questions not given at which temperature limit. Means if the input temperature is same for both the cycle then the efficiency is same for both the cycle and it must be in reversible condition.

Carnot cycle is ideal cycle. The efficiency is maximum in this cycle. Stirling cycle is have less efficiency.

Carnot cycle is more efficient than stirling.

Yes Carnot cycle has equal efficiency to Stirling but when the temperature limits are not considered.

Dear @Pawan and @Paresh, Stirling Cycle efficiency is equal to Carnot Cycle efficiency when both are working with same temperature limit.

The efficiency of regenerative stirling cycle is equal to Carnot efficiency.

Carnot cycle is more efficiency of the stirling cycle.

Tarun sahoo said:   1 decade ago
Efficiency of Carnot cycle is equal to that of Stirling (when re generated) otherwise Carnot has more efficiency.

Mayur said:   1 decade ago
Carnot cycle is maximum efficient cycle compared to all the cycle since the conditions are ideal and there will be no losses.

Dantes said:   1 decade ago
Carnot cycle is more efficient than Stirling cycle.
