how do people use ceramics in rotary engines? particularly coatings. im sure they can be used on the rotor faces, maybe the side of the rotors, and definitely in the ports, but more than that i dont know.
and another question, isnt the rotary engine a very good choice for ceramics in the rotor core materials and intermediate plates? since a rotary engine doesnt jerk around like a piston engine, ceramics should work very well. |
all i've seen done are rotor faces and both the intake and exhaust manifolds. haven't seen anything else done. can't see a point to anything else, really.

ceramic coatings are sometimes used. however quite cost ly and mostly only necessary in "competition" engines
Rotorsports racing does some coating www.rotorsportsracing.com if you wanna spend big $$$ contact JHB Performance www.jhbperformance.com (In canada) they can coat your engine with the same special coatings as in the 787b https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif |
There are a lot of benefits for ceramics on street cars.
Everything is coated on the engine below( rotor housings/side plates, rotors bearing, pump etc) https://www.nopistons.com/forums/gal...0_42_18038.jpg |

From my personal experience, other REAL racers, engine builders etc they work extremely well. Owner of one race team reported a 40deg DROP in oil temp. He runs a Gt47 @ 45psi on his drag Rx8. However hard numbers are coming soon. |

Where did you get this done? At one of the places mentioned above? We are the ones doing those pictured. Jwteknix I believe is referring to JHB. |
