Will the Renesis exhaust manifold stand up to the aircraft high power
temps ?

Hi!: for what I've read about the early Internal Combustion
Engine times,
exhaust gas temperatures hav/e /an /inverse relationship /to the
effective Compression
Ratio, the lower the CR, the highest the exhaust gas temperatures, this
was among the
causes of poppet valve failures in ICEs, and one of the advantages of
Single Sleeve-Valve,
Burt-McCollum type distribution system success.
As Renesis is a high CR engine, and aviation engines usually work at
much more open throttle
than automobile engines, effective CR in an airplane RCE usually would
be high, thus problems
connected to exhaust gas temperatures in a Wankel RCE installed in an
airplane would be less
than with the same engine in a car, but probably exhaust temperatures
will be higher than with
a Reciprocating Engine..
