Royce,
      On the 2 rotor engines, the rotors are cooled by spraying oil inside

of

the rotor.  Will there be a similar cooling means for the single rotor and

if

so how  will it be done? If it is eliminated, will this compromise the
reliability of the engine?

Thanks.

Wally

Wally the rotor cooling oil spray will still be used.  The jet will be

relocated to

the e-shaft between the rear end housing and the rotor. Remember the rotor is

being

geared from the front stationary gear.

Royce,
      Thanks for the reply to my question.

Could you send me a sketch of who this single rotor and e-shaft will go
together?

I have an engine that I got but it was in a basket so I really have no idea of
how it will go back together.

I have the capability of doing the machining of the shaft but I have been
waiting for someone to help out with a drawing to get me started.

Hope you or someone else can help out here.

Thanks.

Wally
