The Wankel Engine Educational Trainer featuring a manually operated rotor that completes one turnover for every three shaft turnovers. This model includes a cutaway carburetor for detailed examination, and a bulb that lights up during the compression phase to simulate petrol ignition. Trainer shows key components such as the rotor’s apical and lateral sealing elements and the epitrochoid-shaped stator and other components for clear understanding of whole mechanics.
Features
Detailed replication of the Wankel rotary engine, including a rotor that performs a full revolution every three revolutions of the drive shaft.
A manually operated crank handle rotates the rotor, with a bulb that lights up to simulate petrol (gasoline) ignition during the compression phase.
Exposes the inner workings of the carburetor, allowing for detailed study of fuel-air mixture and its role in engine performance.
Demonstrates the three mobile combustion chambers and the unique epitrochoid-shaped stator, offering insights into the engine's efficiency and emission characteristics.
Ensures durability and ease of use in classroom settings.
Value for Students
Understand wankel rotary engine's operation, see its unique rotor dynamics, which differ significantly from conventional piston engines.
The model features a manually operated rotor (triangular piston) that rotates within the stator, allowing students to observe the engine's three-phase operation: intake, compression, and exhaust. The simulation of petrol (gasoline) ignition during compression is demonstrated by a small bulb, providing a clear visual representation of the internal combustion process.
The trainer shows the engineering challenges of the Wankel engine, such as the wear and tear of sealing elements and the emission of unburnt hydrocarbons.
With visible components of cutaway carburetor and sealing elements, students can increase their technical proficiency and understanding of rotary engine mechanics.
Value for Instructors
Demonstrate the operation and structure of the Wankel engine in a safe and effective way.
The model’s manual operation and clear visibility of internal components make it easier to illustrate whole working principles
Built with durable materials and mounted on a stable base, this model is designed for repeated use in educational settings.
Trainer is ideal for courses focusing on internal combustion engines, automotive engineering, and mechanical design, providing a versatile tool that aligns with a wide range of curricula.
