For conveniently investigating the performance of core thermoacoustic components (such as regenerator) in different acoustic field and finding the optimal structure or working conditions, a novel experimental rig for thermoacoustic system was proposed. By use of linear motors, controllable regulation of acoustic field in the system was realized. The regulation methods and characteristic of the system acoustic field were analyzed by theory and numerically simulation. Finally, preliminary experiments were given to verify the scheme. Theoretical analysis results show that moving mass and resistance of load alternator are the main means to regulate the acoustic field. Subsequently numerical simulation results show that the influence of moving mass is larger than resistance. By optimization, the maximum net output acoustic power and thermoacoustic efficiency of 361 W and 39. 1% are obtained respectively. Finally, the experimental results show that present scheme is feasible and has the same trend with numerical results.
