  • I Run a See-through Rotary (Wankel) engine and Film it in Slow Motion so we can see how the combustion process works, aka Wankel Rotary engine.
    here you can also see what is inside of a rotary engine (Wankel), while it's running in full view to see just visually witness how a combustion process differs from the piston engine counterpart.
    First ever See Through Rotary Engine Series on TH-cam or anywhere in the world.
    Have you ever wondered how a Wankel engine works differently from a conventional piston engine then you're watching The Right video, because with my see-through angle engine you can see inside the combustion chamber as the engine is running while I film it with high speed cameras to show you how the Wankel combustion process works.
    This is the first episode of the see-through rotary engine series and the second season of The see-through engine series.
    So make sure to go to the playlist tag and check out the entire series of see-through Engine videos, the second season starts soon.

Terrible for the environment. But super cool. Lol. I drove a second gen rx7 before. Super fun car. Didn't end up buying in cause the wireing for the lights and everything to make it road legal was shot. Super fun car tho. Braaaaaapp! POP! POP! POP! BRAAAAAAAAPP!

      The situation isn't anywhere near that bad, but the same flaws do nevertheless exist.
      I personally believe that wankels may never become 'fixed' of their flaws, but we have naturally not seen all potential improvements so it's impossible to know.
      Sort of how 2-strokes were possible to turn into clean-burning things with slight changes (mainly direct injection and removing the oil from the fuel).

I thought that was insane that they wanted to use a rotary for a mass-produced tank. Thanks, it was a pain in the a** but I knew somebody had to do it. Originally scheduled to be a 2-day shoot it ended up being a 16 day shoot. Thanks I'm glad you liked it, episode 2 is going to be nuts, all of this is building up to episode 3.

      12 years ago Mazda was running 3-rotor powered RX8 tube-frame chassis cars in Grand American sports car racing(now merged with IMSA) that was not only wooping V8s & Flat 6s with shear power
      it had was also killing the piston the engines on the reliability front while still setting up a fire show.

      @@Deere2154D Do you have any objections to 2 stroke dirt bikes? I would say you might rebuild the top end many times in time but never have to do that on a 4 stroke. Most every one who complains about rotaries has never had first hand experience. I think they are far easier to remove and rebuild than a subaru.

    @erniebrinkrotaryhemi7336 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Once the apex of the rotor passes the exhaust port, the high-pressure combustion gases are free to flow out the exhaust. As the rotor continues to move, the chamber starts to contract, forcing the remaining exhaust out of the port. By the time the volume of the chamber is nearing its minimum, the peak of the rotor passes the intake port and the whole cycle starts again.
    The neat thing about the rotary engine is that each of the three faces of the rotor is always working on one part of the cycle. In one complete revolution of the rotor, there will be three combustion strokes.

      Citroen and Van Veen also experimented with Wankel, but only NSU and Mazda had Wankel commercialized. A nice thought to rotate instead of the existing up/down engines, but some bad hooks: bad compression control, bad fuel consumption and bad CO2 creation.
