No,en absoluto,no tengo nada en contra de los pistones.De hecho mi motor (proyecto)los lleva.Estos son alargados,curvos y basculantes en un extremo.Valga como ejemplo una catapulta o una puerta al abrir o cerrar, menos fricción, mucha velocidad de compresión.Las carreras son asimétricas, dotado al final del tiempo de compresión con un avance (Brave step) permitiendo que el 80% del esfuerzo recaiga sobre el rotor de forma tangencial y solo un 20% sobre el pistón (llamado cizalla). Mi objetivo es un motor rotativo con rotor CIRCULAR y giro concéntrico de par motor igual o superior al 2T y por tanto no necesitará las r.p.m. ni el vaivén del rotativo wankel.Saludos.

You realize that Mazda didn't invent this, right? The basic design was done by Felix Wankel in the 1920's, developed into a running engine by Wankel, and further developed into a practical engine by Hanns Dieter Paschke, both working at NSU in the 1950's. Mazda licensed the design in 1961, one of many companies to do so, but the only one to sell an engine of this design in large quantities.

Piston engines have a clear boundary between engine oil and combustion room, but rotaries do not, engine oil will be consumed during the rotation. Meanwhile, the apex seals are problematic due to their limited size and shape; the sealed area is also way larger than a piston engine. Note, the entire rotary needs to move smoothly but also be highly sealed with the two housings sandwiched.
@Christopher_TG
@Christopher_TG Жыл бұрын
Not only that, but within that combustion room you have all 4 of the steps of the Otto cycle happening simultaneously, so if you don't have near perfect sealing of the different regions of the chamber, the bleedover will hurt engine efficiency as well.

Piston engines also burn oil just not the 4stroke ones. And it's a wankel not Rotary.

I did a report in the 70's (4th grade) on the Wankel engine . I was so intrigued with this design I eventually purchased a mazda with the rotary engine. I never put a tachometer on that little motor, but I did take to some ridiculous RPMs. No floating valves! It wouldn't keep up with my big block chevy, but it would definitely scare the shit out of the driver, lol.

Smooth, rev forever and last long time providing you keep up good maintenance just like any engine. I can live with economy not being the best and a little more emissions. Long live the rotary engine!!! Give back to us this beautiful engine 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I think this is a common problem actually. Rotary engines consume a lot more oil to prevent the scraping as much as possible but also the apex seals(tips) need to be replaced quite frequently if I'm not mistaken.

Bassotronics The apex seals are actually quite robust except in the area of detonation. Even stock seals will last over 100k on a turbo motor. Its the coating on the inside of the housings that can chip and peel over time.

Exactly why its a pos. And inherently flawed design. "Look at me dorito motor durrr.!" A motor that needs new apex seals every 80-90k miles is not what I would call revolutionary. ....PS. The rx8 looks like and is shit. No wonder they gave one for free on fear factor that one year lolz

A rotary engine uses oil injection which lubricates the walls of the rotor housing.

Such a simple concept with such fantastic results. Turns a sprinkle of high density liquid energy into lots and lots of motion, sound, drama and fun. Used to daily an RX7FC, was also fun to just drive it tho you always needed a few more revs to launch than you thought, going from reciprocating to rotary.

Not really, most of the tiny fragile little seal components are not shown in the video. The Wankel is actually a very complicated and troublesome engines design which is why they are not made anymore.

Pros - It can make good power for its size because it has 3 phases of combustion going on simultaneously for each rotor, a piston can only do one thing at a time. It can also rev at very high speeds. Cons: They burn oil, and they aren't very fuel efficient.

Brilliant! (Both the engine design and your animation.....music is an added bonus!) It's so radically different than a conventional piston engine I wonder how in the heck the designer came up with the idea. When I think of the tight tolerances needed to create the combustion required, while doing it with a rotary part spinning at thousands of RPMs, it boggles my mind. Very, very cool!

Twister051 There is a book called "The Wankel Rotary Engine" by John B Hege. It goes though the very early days with the housing spinning around the rotor to function as a pump. Intake cam through the center of the engine if I remember correctly. Follows as it started to be developed as an engine, much of the work actually done by another person working for NSU. Talks about all the various licensed prototype engines various companies made. The Corvette even came in a one off mid engine rotary concept. The book wraps up with the Mazda history with the engine. They where really the only company to see any success with the design. Very good read. It is on the Google Play store.

Nice CGI, well done! Is there a prototype of that engine? Also, it would be cool to see R&D involving something else than fossil fuel combustion, but that's another topic. EDIT - From Wikipedia : "Sarich worked on the concept for a number of years without ever producing a production engine. A prototype was demonstrated, running on the bench with no load. The engine, which produces very high revs, has only one moving part. It can _supposedly be powered by compressed air or steam and can be run as a pump_. Only one "bench prototype" has been built, which worked, but without any load though.
