  • This would be a "rotary" engine, not a radial.

  • Sorry, I have the two types confused. When I hear the term "rotary" I think Wankel.

    :-)

  • thats not a radial engine thats a rotary piston engine, in a radial engine the crank rotates and the block is stationary, in a rotary piston engine, the block rotates and the crank is stationary as shown.

  • so how is the power transferred to wherever it's going?

  • fine example. however ignition in inacurate every once in a while

  • fine example. however ignition i inacurate every once in a while

  • In this kind of engine, how is the air/fuel mix metered to the individual combustion chambers? is it like a two stroke where it is crankcase-induced? sorry, i'm an engine enthusiast but new to these 'rotary" engines.. not new to the Wankel though.

  • THIS IS A ROTARY ENGINE BECAUSE THE CYLINDERS ROTATE

  • @666ShoopDaWoop666 google gnome rotary

  • ahhhmm piston # 2 does not fire???... anyway, good work. impressive.

  • if i were in a crowd of continuous talking like that with my mind fixed on something so interesting I would literally go out of my mind.

  • @666ShoopDaWoop666

    No worries! I was rude because you threw in a few EFFS and called people retarded! You have demonstrated that you can admit when you are wrong - you will go far. :-}

    Cheers

    o yeak now i found it , ok you are right.

    but wankel engines are also called rotary engines so i was confused

    Wankel = rotary pistonless engine
