Vance, I have a excellent copy of Felix Wankel's original technical paper;
Eintellung der Rotations Kolbenmaschinen presented in 1963 at Technische
Entwicklungsstelle der Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Lindau/Bodensee.
It is written in German and has dozens if not scores of configurations of
rotary engines all illustrated in color that Felix considered before he

decided

on the rotary configuration we now know and love. It was give to me by
Eurgen Bax Pres. of Wankel Gmbh when I visited the factory in Korf. Are

you

interested in a copy? The paper is 60 pages with about
20 pages in color. This would add greatly to your presentation on the
Wankel rotary. You must pay for the copy :-)

Paul Lamar

Paul,

I would like to at least have the equations that determine the shape of the
combustion chamber and rotor. If that is contained in that paper, could you
scan the page with that info? If it is not conveniently located on one
page could you recommend a source for this info?

Monty

Those equations are in Kenichi Yamamoto's book and I will scan them in
later today Monty. Not in Felix's paper.

Paul Lamar

Paul, anyone, where can we get a copy/reproduction  of Kenichi's book?
I have had a lookout posted on amazon.com for month's now.
