Wankel engine principle, artwork
Wankel engine principle. Computer artwork showing the internal workings of a Wankel rotary engine. The Wankel engine is a type of internal combustion engine that uses an eccentric rotary design to convert pressure into a rotating motion instead of using reciprocating pistons. From left to right: fuel is drawn in through the inlet (top arrow); a spark ignites the fuel, causing an explosion that turns the rotor (triangular, centre) to drive the engine; exhaust gasses are then expelled though the outlet (bottom arrow). This engine was invented by the German engineer Felix Wankel, who received his first patent for the design in 1929 and completed a working prototype in 1957. Wankel rotary engines have since been used in a variety of vehicles and devices

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate internal workings of a Wankel rotary engine, a revolutionary piece of engineering that defies traditional piston-driven designs. With its eccentric rotary mechanism, this German invention by Felix Wankel has forever changed the landscape of automotive and industrial applications. In this computer-generated illustration, we witness the mesmerizing dance between fuel and pressure as they transform into a powerful rotating motion. From left to right, we observe how fuel is drawn in through the inlet with precision (indicated by the top arrow), ready to ignite under controlled circumstances. A spark sets off an explosion within the engine, propelling the triangular rotor at its core (the heart of this mechanical marvel) to drive forward with relentless force. As exhaust gasses are expelled through the outlet (as indicated by the bottom arrow), one cannot help but admire both the simplicity and complexity behind this design. The genius lies in Felix Wankel's ability to harness pressure conversion without relying on reciprocating pistons. Since its inception in 1929 and completion of a working prototype in 1957, Wankel rotary engines have found their way into various vehicles and devices across industries worldwide. This artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity and mechanical prowess while highlighting our ongoing quest for innovation beyond fossil fuels. Captured beautifully by Science Photo Library, this print invites us into an extraordinary world where art meets science—a visual celebration of mechanical engineering brilliance that continues to shape our modern era.
