At least MM knew about the ideal gas law. Temperature vs mass matters.

Lol, i made a reference that it goes in there also, but it gets a lil more complex when you throw that into it.

I was imagining a high compression rotary engine with a small turbo charger, Direct injection and possible laser ignition. this means we can retain lean afrs and timing. even utilizing negative split.

mazda was already considering changing the stroke etc, with the 16x perhaps thats still in the works.

the turbo would only be there to help push the rotor around to compress say 14:1. yielding decent power nothing crazy just 200-250flywheel power, but get into the 30-40mpg area.

I know laser ignition and what not may seem fairy taleish but its fun to speculate.

what the engineers need is a really good modeling simulator, so they can make changes on the fly and see how it acts in software.

I have always thought a true direct injection would be awesome. Swap out spark plugs for injectors and kick the compression way up there.

Talk to anyone who was ever into paintball in the mid 90s about pressure without flow. (or anyone with a general grasp of physics) MM knows what he is talking about.

There's nothing complex about someone throwing up a novel's worth calculations that leave some of the most important variables out or predicting things that aren't possible for the same reason.

This is just another old thread that needs to be closed to finally put an end to what started out absurb and pointless which and has & can go only get worse from there.

Paging RIWWP ....
