This engine is the basis of the modern “Wankel” rotary engine. Piston powered engines, chiefly the Otto and Diesel cycle, are current kings of the internal combustion mountain. Piston powered ...

Could there possibly be a rotary engine with 12 rotors? The answer is yes, and here’s everything we know about it including ...

In a rotary engine the typical Otto cycle takes place in an oval-shaped chamber in which a triangular rotor rotates, effectively taking the place of the pistons in a traditional engine.

Rotary engines (also known as Wankel engines and Wankel rotary engines) are quite different from piston or "reciprocating" engines. One of the distinguishing features is that they don't need ...

The film discusses various types of engines that utilize heat energy for operation. It explains steam engines, which are reciprocating external combustion engines, and compares them to internal ...

As interesting as this concept is, it still has a long way to go before reaching production lines, not to mention its applications may be limited ...
