A Concept, Draft and Dream. (Mazda Rx9)

Hi again everyone,

I "THINK" I'm in the right section..

Disclaimer: specifics on the engine will be limited until a proper patent is established. prototyping will start in the future. I am "NOT" a specialist by any sense of the word, but I would love your feed back.

Please feel free to ask questions.

I have been working on a drafted reengineered rotary engine, with the goal of competing with and surpassing Nissan's GT-R models (Godzilla) in a battle at Le Mans.

This Concept Rotary Engine is an innovative design aimed at delivering high performance while addressing common challenges such as fuel economy, oil consumption, and emissions control. This engine is tailored for high-performance applications.

Based on preliminary design and simulations, the Concept Rotary Engine is estimated to achieve the following dyno numbers before forced induction:

Peak Horsepower: Approximately 500-630 HP
Peak Torque: Approximately 450-550 lb-ft
Maximum RPM: Approximately 12,000-15,000 RPM

These figures place the engine in a highly competitive high-performance range with strong acceleration and top-end power.

This Custom Rotary Engine design utilizes two stages of torque multiplication to enhance overall performance (I was jealous of Honda's V-Tec):

1.) Primary Torque Multiplication: The first stage involves an innovative design where the primary rotor configuration is optimized to deliver an initial boost in torque. This stage leverages advanced mechanical engineering principles to increase torque output efficiently. Aimed at maintaining steady peak torque range whether at low or high RPMs.

2.) Secondary Torque Multiplication: The second stage further amplifies the torque evenly through a sophisticated gear system connected to the main rotor shaft. This system ensures that the torque is multiplied and transmitted effectively to the drivetrain, resulting in improved acceleration and power delivery. This is primarily a late stage application during higher RPMs.

Drivetrain of choice: Mid or Mid-Rear engine rear wheel drive.
The added weight near the back tires to assist in acceleration and power delivery while also improving the car's power to weight balance. Improving overall agility.

By focusing on the oil consumption issue. It allowed for improved rotor housing lubrication & discontinued use of apex seals(reducing wear), indirectly resulting in a higher RPM limit due to the reduced friction. A secondary side effect to this, better emissions control due to zero to very low amounts of oil being allowed within the combustion chamber as engine oil will no longer be the primary source of lubrication within the housing.

This Custom Rotary Engine is designed with a strong focus on minimizing emissions. 2 of these emissions control systems are:

Air Injection System: An integrated air injection system promotes cleaner combustion, reducing the production of harmful exhaust gases. Improved fuel atomization leaves behind less harmful exhausts. This also indirectly improves fuel economy. As less fuel will be necessary with a better air to fuel mixture.

To improve fuel economy, the Custom Rotary Engine incorporates several advanced technologies:

Optimized Air-Fuel Mixture: Advanced intake port designs and precise fuel injection systems ensure an optimal air-fuel mixture, promoting efficient combustion and reducing fuel consumption.

Advanced Combustion Techniques: Innovations in the combustion process, such as enhanced ignition timing and optimized chamber designs, lead to more complete fuel burning and reduced waste.

​​​​​​Catalytic Converter: A high-efficiency catalytic converter is included to further reduce emissions, ensuring the engine meets stringent environmental standards.
Oil consumption and rotor housing lubrication seemed to be the main issues when creating more power.

What other areas does everyone else deal with when building their rotaries?
