OK…this seems really function…less moving parts then a piston engine..but why are people always raging on rotary engines for the reliability?

i like chicken.. and thanx for the video
great work
March 5th, 2009 at 8:19 pm
then i’ll make an innovation… lol…

awesome video…one of the best ive ever seen in explaining the rotory engine!
thanks

excellent animation,very efficent design.I remember seeing a few cars with these engines at the drag strip a few years back,these things absolutely rev to the moon………

I think it’s definitely possible but it would be too long to fit in a standard size car haha
March 12th, 2009 at 7:50 pm
thanks for putting this up…
so what if we out 8 rotors on a car? is it possible?
March 15th, 2009 at 2:34 am
This type ofengine is in fact called “Wankel engine”, after it’s inventor… anyway, cool and educative animation. NIce work, really nice.

very cool video thanks finally understand a bit more about rotarys
March 17th, 2009 at 10:41 am
wow. great video. never really cared much about rotarys so i didnt know about them. now i know how they work i might actually pay attention to them more. lol.
March 18th, 2009 at 2:37 pm
yes, i know, but they aren’t economic. : )

It is for city riding. Some Mazda’s have then like the RX-8 and the RX-7. They are good engines and they get going when you put the pedal to the floor.

I think you will enjoy “The Best Rotary Engine” , here in YouTube, which does not need any ring or piece to seal the mechanism.
¡Congratulations!

greatest animation i have seen.

Well, I remember reading about an LS1 powered RX-7. They said the LS1 only added 60 lbs. So yeah, the rotary was a little lighter, but it was also down about 100 hp and god knows how much torque. I’d like to see a lbs. to hp ratio of the two engines.
March 24th, 2009 at 3:13 am
it isn’t engine for city riding. i think it’s a future of motorsports. : )
March 26th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
@10072018 i’d have to disagree with you on the weight, they’re light for the power they produce.
March 27th, 2009 at 8:21 pm
very true. a major downfall.
March 28th, 2009 at 2:13 am
a piston engine of the same ***PEAK*** power will get better fuel economy and more average power than the shitty Wankel.
March 30th, 2009 at 9:33 am
That is correct.
March 30th, 2009 at 10:34 pm
Rotards don’t like facts. Try not to upset them too much.
April 1st, 2009 at 10:38 am
Apparently not! Try 22 hwy and 18 combined. 16 city. Edmunds info.
Worse than the GM 5.7L V8. You rotards have your heads in the clouds again.

Excelent.
Thanks a lot
