The Wankel engine operates on a rotary design, using a triangular rotor that moves in an epitrochoidal path within a housing, resulting in continuous rotation and fewer moving parts compared to a traditional 4-stroke engine. In contrast, a 4-stroke engine relies on a linear reciprocating motion of pistons, completing four distinct strokes (intake, compression, power, exhaust) in two revolutions of the crankshaft. This fundamental difference in design leads to variations in efficiency, power delivery, and size, with the Wankel engine often being more compact and smoother in operation. However, it typically has lower thermal efficiency and higher emissions compared to conventional piston engines.
The first running prototype was completed in 1957
Rotary means going around, like in a Wankel. Reciprocating means going back and forth. like in a ordinary piston engine.
4stroke engine are stronger than 2stroke cause you get to break down on a 2 stroke

There are no strokes in Wankel Engine.
Yes, a Wankel engine can run on ethanol. Ethanol is a popular alternative fuel for internal combustion engines, and it can be used in Wankel engines with modifications to the fuel system to handle the different properties of ethanol compared to gasoline.
The Wankel engine is a type of internal combusion engine that uses a unique design to convert pressure into a rotational motion. It was invented by a German, Frank Wankel, and was first patented in 1929.
wankel rotary engine
In a Wankel engine, all parts rotate in one direction, while in a reciprocating engine, pistons move back and forth
The Wankel rotary engine is a differing type of engine as opposed to the standard piston engine. The Mazda line of cars is the one that uses this type of engine.

Yes, if you mean a "Wankel" engine, also called a "Rotary" engine.
The Mazda Rx7 has the Wankel Rotary Engine in it
The other name for the rotary is the Wankel engine.
