摘要:
A rotary engine having an insert in a peripheral wall of the stator body, the insert being made of a material having a greater heat resistance than that of the peripheral wall, having a subchamber defined therein and having an inner surface, the subchamber communicating with the cavity through at least one opening defined in the inner surface and having a shape forming a reduced cross-section adjacent the opening, a pilot fuel injector having a tip received in the subchamber, an ignition element having a tip received in the subchamber, and a main fuel injector extending through the stator body and having a tip communicating with the cavity at a location spaced apart from the insert. The subchamber has a volume corresponding to from 5% to 25% of a sum of the minimum volume and the volume of the subchamber. A method of injecting heavy fuel into a Wankel engine is also discussed.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for controlling an air input in a rotary engine, including selectively controlling a plurality of inlet ports communicating with an internal combustion cavity of the engine, the ports located serially downstream of the exhaust port relative direction of a revolution of a rotor of the engine. The inlet ports are controlled to alter air intake at various engine operational stages, such as start up, idle, etc., to allow for varying operational requirements to be met. For example: when a power demand on the engine lower than a predetermined threshold, control may be effected by opening a primary inlet port and closing a secondary inlet port; and, when the power demand exceeds the predetermined threshold, control may be effected by opening the primary inlet port and opening the secondary inlet port, the secondary inlet port being located such as to be in communication with the exhaust port throughout portions of the revolution of the engine to purge exhaust gases of the engine.

In one aspect, described is a rotary engine having a purge port located rearwardly of the inlet port and forwardly of the exhaust port along a direction of the revolutions of the rotor, the purge port being in communication with the exhaust port through each of the chambers along a respective portion of each revolution, and the inlet and outlet ports being relatively located such that a volumetric compression ratio of the engine is lower than a volumetric expansion ratio of the engine.

A scroll compressor includes a frame holding an orbiting scroll configured to slide, a fixed scroll configured to form a compression chamber together with the orbiting scroll, and a shell accommodating the frame and the fixed scroll. The shell includes a first inner wall surface and a first protrusion protruding from the first inner wall surface to position the fixed scroll, and the fixed scroll is fixed to the first inner wall surface.

A compound engine system includes a rotary engine with rotating chambers, a compressor section in successive communication with the rotating chambers, and a turbine section in successive communication with the rotating chambers. The turbine section has an output shaft. The output shaft and the engine shaft are drivingly engaged to each other and wherein the turbine section has a power output corresponding to from 20% to 35% of a total power output of the compound engine system. A method of compounding power in a compound engine system is also discussed.
摘要:
A compound engine system including a Wankel engine having a recess defined in the peripheral wall of the rotor in each of the three rotating chambers, the recess having a volume of more than 5% of the displacement volume of the chambers. The expansion in the turbine section compensates for the relatively low expansion ratio of the rotary engine.

A vane motor is disclosed in which the volumetric displacement, torque, or speed are continuously adjustable. The vane motor includes a housing having a rotor and cam ring disposed axially around the rotor. The rotor includes vanes in radial slots which divide the motor between the rotor and cam rings. One cam ring is rotatable relative to the other so as to change volumetric displacement.
