The Szorenyi Rotary - the four chamber rotary engine

摘要

A new configuration of a rotary engine has been developed by the Rotary Engine Development Agency (REDA), based in Melbourne. The special features of the engine are that it is a rotary type with four chambers and the engine stator profile that contains the four chambers is mathematically defined. Named after its inventor, Peter Szorenyi, the engine promises to have much higher power than a Wankel engine and match the power of a reciprocating engine. The invention has been awarded a US patent (No: 6,718,938 B2) and a prototype has passed the proof-of-concept stage of development.
