Abstract: 
 A comparison of the in-airframe performance and efficiency of the advanced engine concepts is presented. The results indicate that the proposed
advanced engines can significantly improve the performance and economy of general aviation airplanes. The engine found to be most promising is
the highly advanced version of a rotary combustion (Wankel) engine. The low weight and fuel consumption of this engine, as well as its small size,
make it suited for aircraft use.
