    Multi-faced rotary

    While rotary engines have great hp/liter ratings, they lose out in fuel efficiency big time. Now, it seems to be common wisdom that the reason for the fuel inefficiency is due to the large SA:V ratio of the combustion chamber, since the rotor face is rather large, especially when compared to a...
