MAZDA RX7 Rotary Engine, How It Works

The MAZDA RX7 rotary or Wankel engine is a marvel of engineering. It has won more races than any other vehicle in its class. Rotary engines develop a great deal of power for their weight (power to weight ratio). They're also able to develop high RPM bursts like no other internal combustion engine. Learn the details of it operation, how the rotor transfers power to the output shaft, what it the stationary gear set, what is the rotor to output shaft ration and relationship. Get all the specifics on the rotary engine's operation here in this video.

Presented using advanced software CG animation technology to help you understand. Part of our Automotive Technology Rotary Wankel engines and MAZDA RX7-RX8 series shown here on this channel. Enjoy...

one thing Rotary motor i don,t loike you need to rev the piss out of them.

@MrHeadshot1982 Thanks for posting. Well, rotaries have a very high RPM limit because there's no reciprocating action. They're being used in flying devices now. Thanks gain.

@ADPTraining Well, narrating it like this makes it somewhat hard to understand and boring to follow.... so just a tip: hire someone to do it :P

[ADPTraining]

@topanteon Hi, sure do, but we have hundreds of videos here and elsewhere. For us to stay free we do what we can. However, keep the criticism coming. It makes us better all the time. We're working on bringing many good things automotive. God bless...

@ADPTraining you couldn't narrate it yourself?!

@ADPTraining Gotcha, thanks for the quick answer!
