Rotary engines do not have valves. They have rotors that are triangular shaped that spin in a circle around the eccentric shaft alongside the housing wall. The fuel squirts into the chamber made by the triangular shape and the housing wall, this is where the exhaust port and the spark plugs are located, as the rotor spins it builds pressure in the chamber and ignites the fuel spinning the rotor.
