i was thinking about what would make a really cool go-kart engine and here's what i came up with:

renesis-style blower. all side port, so you get 2 pulses per rev, then feed that into the rear rotor (standard combustion). one rotor blown engine

 

sounds like you definiately would have a blown engine...

 

the compressor needs to be bigger (or more of them) than the engine otherwise you wont build any positive pressure and you have a big parasitic drag and horrible intake restriction. I think you need to work out some kinks.

 

^ it's twice the size of the engine.

 

Ahh, ok. Rolls Royce already did a diesel rotary like that then about 35 years ago

 

na, they had 2 different sized rotors, iirc.

with the renny being zero overlap, you could punch more ports on the other side of the iron and have 2 intake and 2 exhaust cycles. feed that through the back rotor.

why?

meh, just for ***** n' giggles
