To the group:
I have been searching for information about the wankel engine.
Specifically the mathematical formulas to draw the peritrochoid
and the rotor and the gear and the shaft. I have found a lot of
references on the web to a site at MONITO.COM that has this
information. However, it appears to be down.
Does anybody have this page cached somewhere that can send it to
me?
Also, if anybody is interested, the original Wankel patent for
the rotary engine is US patent #2,988,065. If you go to the
USPTO.GOV web site, you can pull this up. If you have trouble,
I can email the 33 pages in TIF format to the group. It is
interesting that Wankel also had a three lobed design with a
square rotor. Although interesting, he still managed to leave
out some stuff.

So Dennis did you get my book list I uploaded a day or so ago?
If not I can do it again.
