Now that is interesting. Basically a 3 combustion chamber rotary engine. If they have perfected the seals between the chambers it may be a big advance in internal combustion engines. The views they give show the seals are chamber mounted instead of mounted on the rotar like the Wankel. That seal was the Achilles heel of the Wankel. If it self destructed from wear the entire engine turned to scrap almost instantly. Maybe with todays advances in materials they have overcome that problem. It will be interesting to watch this develop. Bob

Not seeing a huge difference between this and the Wankel, SF.The Wankel's biggest problem was seal life. If they have solved that problem, then there is a future.A wee bit slow on the enter button.

It's not a Wankel, but it looks and acts like one. How is it not constant volume combustion? That would be less efficient any way I can think about it.

Wondering if they can connect those together like the Wankel . Small ones can be used as generators to charge the batteries in the electric cars.

Leave the seals alone!!!!!

Still operates like a compression engine: Intake, compression, exhaust.
