The power cylinder works on the principle that heated air expands, and cooled air contracts. After the displacer moves the air to the hot side, the air heats up and expands (after a small delay) and pushes out the power cylinder, which in turn pushes the connecting rod and the crankshaft. When the displacer has moved the air to the cold side, the air contracts, pulling the power cylinder down, pulling the crankshaft. The power cylinder is 90 degrees 'behind' the displacer, due to the delay in expanding of the air after heating.
what does a cylinder block do
There is an engine block which houses all the moving parts of an internal combustion engine, and a cylinder which is a part of that block, the cylinder is where the piston moves inside and where combustion takes place.
