Hey all,

This japanese guy I work with at Delphi had all of these cool technical
books written in japanese and I found this on rotary engines. I though
it was pretty cool so I decided to share. Diagrams look standard fare
but there may be some info in the words that are useful. Doug?
I do have a question about the diagram on page 19. You can see the rotor
housing is straight on the old version and v shaped on the newer
version. Just for weight or is there a flow benefit to this. Also you
can see that water chamber on the side housings are different. Same
question.

Too big to publish Rob.
I will deal with it when i get back.
Much of it has been published in english in
SAE papers. Some is in Kenich Yamoto's book Rotary
engine published in 1981. The book can be downloaded
from:

Rob,

Send me the link directly and I'll see if I can read it.  It may be a
few days though.  Presently Paul has my wife and I  working on an
ancient text about a guy named Pauru Ramal and his Firbird, or at least
I think that what it says:)


Doug in Japan

Will do shortly.
