This site describes F1 direct injection scheme; looks like
stratified charge with a pre ignition
chamber. An injector in both chambers.

I neglected to report they
claim BSFC is 200g/KW/Hr with an F1 V6.
I translated that to be .33

The strange thing is that the rules only allow one injector per
cylinder . I wonder how they get around that.

Paul and Robert,

What are we looking at here Barry?
The wankel is trying to set a fire in a wind storm.
They don't call it a rotating combustion chamber for nothing :-)
IMHO the problem won't be solved until that is changed.
They should blow some air in the reverse direction.
One way to do that is have a double layer combustion chamber
and use the air flowing in the basement up, around and back to
slow the air flowing in the living room where the fire is :-)
If the ceiling is low enough in the basement the air won't catch fire
in the basement due to flame quenching and the lack of fuel in the
basement air
assuming direct injection in the living room.
The slot that allows the compressed air to enter the basement will reduce
the pressure that causes the squish flow in the living room in the first
place :-)
Pardon the analogy with a house on fire :-)
-------------------------------------------------------
To clarify this analogy just a bit.
In a strong wind nothing will burn up wind.
That is the fundamental problem with the wankel.
It does not burn when it will do the most good.
It is best shown in fig-32.jpg.
However, it is NOT an instrumental problem. It can be fixed.
We just need to do a bit of experimenting with the combustion
chamber.
