Abstract Waste heat is an environmental issue in the world. There are some technologies that can be used to recovery the waste heat, one of which is thermoacoustic cooler technology. Thermoacoustic technology can be divided into two parts: one is thermoacoustic engine and cooler. To design the cooler system having high efficiency and lower onset heating temperature, the effect of mean pressure is investigated. By increasing mean pressure from 0.5 to 3 MPa, the heating temperature generating acoustic power can be decreased from 831 to 580 K. Moreover, 15% of Thermodynamic upper limit value of the whole cooler system is achieved.
