How Your Rotary Engine Works: A great, short read, with excellent photos
 

I stumbled across this article and was impressed by the brevity and accompanying excellent photographs of partially dissassembled rotary engines.

Enjoy.

Howstuffworks is a freakin' gold/titanium/diamond mine of info. It'll tell you almost anything technical you want to know, from machineguns to broadband to your iPod, it's there. And if you already know how, as I did a/b the wankel, it fills in gaps for you.

I know. I love it. Great publication (especially for non-gear heads, like me. :D )
