I have seen Stirling powered fans, but NOT generators
And those fans produced less air flow, than a 100w electric motor
I do remember one reading about an idea for a Stirling style closed horizontal system to be powered by, the suns heat, to provided power for the space station, two wings, one in the shade one in the sun, the fluid movement to power pistons to pump heating and cooling thru put the station
AFAIK..it never bore fruit, just like the wave machine power generator ideas, but those of course have s sand built up as a hindrance, and storms etc..massive maintenance work to keep it going
