In this video, I explore a novel rotary engine design that addresses the sealing challenges of traditional rotary vane engines. My new design features two half-moons within an ellipse that allow for ...

When considering rotary engines, the Wankel engine often comes to mind due to its high power-to-weight ratio, though it ...

When it comes to unconventional engine design, few exceed the Wankel rotary in terms of weirdness. Despite that, the same basic principles of internal combustion apply here: Fuel and air are mixed and ...

The electric motor might carry the hype banner at the moment, but some minds remain convinced that there's plenty of innovation left to be extracted from internal combustion. AIE is one of the rotary ...

Professor Aniebiet Inyang Ntui is a multi-faceted individual whose expertise spans the worlds of library and information science, environmental advocacy, and – perhaps surprisingly – the automotive ...

The rotary was the most radical rethink of the combustion engine in over a hundred years — and it paid the price for being different. Mazda introduced the innovative Wankel rotary engine in the 1967 ...

That alone reduces emissions and increases engine longevity. The rotary valve also means that the blockages caused by conventional poppet valves are not an issue as poppet valves are not needed in ...
