Abstract
The thermoacoustic energy converting element part includes a plurality of through holes extending along a uniform direction to penetrate a body of the thermoacoustic energy converting element part to form traveling paths of acoustic waves. The element part includes a wall surrounding each of the through holes to extend in an extending direction of the through hole and configured to exchange heat between the fluid. The through hole includes a through hole that has a hydraulic diameter of 0.4 mm or smaller, and an open area ratio of the through holes is 60% or higher. A first layer and a second layer are alternately provided on the wall of the thermoacoustic energy converting element part along the extending direction. A porosity of the first layer is 0% or smaller than a porosity of the second layer. The thermal conductivity of the structure of the thermoacoustic energy converting element part along the extending direction is 2 W/m/K or lower. If a metal plate is provided as the first layer, a plurality of the metal plates having a roughened main surface is layered and bonded by thermocompression bonding to manufacture the thermoacoustic energy converting element part.
