Sounds like acool project, maybe some people would acctually begin to understand what a rotary is intead of going "hmm...No pistons huh?" Take some pics of it if you do accomplish this.

Steam powered rotary engine.. sounds different..

It might be interesting to try it using a wood rotor, and plexiglass sides. You could just use a 13B rotor housing and stationary gear. That would be cool. Thick plexiglass walls so you can have side port intake drilled out of the plexiglass.
now I want to do it too. Hell, make it a steam powered two rotor, I like the wood rotors idea because they would absorb some of the moisture and keep it lubricated a bit.. and they wouldnt destroy the plexiglass. You could use the ring gears from 13b rotors and press them into the wood rotors, and pin them to them rotors too just like stock. sounds like fun. |
MAD MAD i say they ALL GONE MAD :werd: U NEED ALOT OF https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/beer2.gif TO FIGURE IT OUT ...LOL..

if you used wood rotors that could soak up moisture, it would swell. and if you didn't have some sort of measure to allow expansion, it would get stuck. then once it dried, it would shrink, and warp.
but what's funny is that while I was on the toilet earlier today, I was thinking of making a wooden rotor, exact replica, just for kicks...weird |

Good call....You would have to treat the wood but it still wouldn't help much. I would use plastic. The whole project seems hard though. |
