What is the Principle of a Rotary Engine?
1 Answers
Principle of a rotary engine: The rotary engine directly converts the combustion expansion force of combustible gas into driving torque. Compared with reciprocating engines, the rotary engine eliminates useless linear motion, so a rotary engine of the same power is smaller in size, lighter in weight, and has lower vibration and noise, offering significant advantages. The rotor of a rotary engine performs work three times per rotation, compared to a general four-stroke engine which performs work only once every two rotations, giving it a high horsepower-to-displacement ratio. Additionally, due to the axial operation characteristics of the rotary engine, it can achieve higher operating speeds without the need for a precise crankshaft balance.
