the engine i want to build is a true diesel, compression ignited. and it's very important that it does work this way. there are several companies world-wide that make spark and heat ignition diesel engines. some even have their own housing designs and things. i don't understand why they...

what compression ratio are you running? mazda had already done a lot of testing with compression ratio and combustion chamber design and so, we already know that above 12:1 compression, the bhp begins to drop WAY off because of a lack of airflow through the combustion phase of the engine's...

companies have been building, advertising, and selling the crap out of short ram intakes and cold-air intakes too, but they don't add power. I've seen it, on the dyno with my own eyes. doesn't matter if it's a big block chev. or a 1.3liter suzuki swift...it doesn't add power. without the...

i was thinking the same thing with injectors, using a high pressure common-rail setup in the position of the lower spark plug hole, and using i believe it's up to 8 injector pulses per comb. process, through to the trailing edge of our bathtub. I am also wondering if possibly moving the...

they don't make an lsx engine that makes more power or torque per liter than the renesis engine. plus, the three rotor face combustions per single eccentric shaft turn makes it more viable to diesel use and the difference in flame front speeds. more moving parts is always, ALWAYS less...

the problem is that peanut buldge in the middle of the epitrochoid housing . when you raise the compression you must fill in the bath tub on the rotor face. when you've filled it in far enough the leading and trailing (top and bottom) sides of the combustion chamber become separate chambers...

NOx occurs above a very specific in cylinder combustion situation, during Lean conditions specifically. i believe the temperature that it takes to create NOx is 1800* or something like that. it's pretty high.

i believe a properly set up cooling system would absolutely work. the colder exhaust should create a low pressure if the system worked as well as we'd like. low pressure would help a great deal in a naturally aspirated engine use a lot of valve overlap. i really doubt you'd lose scavenging or...

So, I've been working on an engine design that has been tried already, and nobody has really got it to work the way i think that it should. The engine I'm working with is a Wankel Rotary Engine and what I'm trying to do is make a modern, high-efficiency, high power-output diesel out of it. I'm...
