A 13B rotary engine operates on the Wankel principle, utilizing a triangular rotor that revolves within an oval housing. As the rotor spins, it creates distinct chambers that facilitate the intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust processes in a continuous cycle. The design allows for fewer moving parts compared to traditional piston engines, resulting in a compact and lightweight engine that delivers high power output relative to its size. This unique configuration contributes to its characteristic smooth operation and high RPM capabilities.

Define rotary engine?

Do an internet on a Mazda RX7 or RX8... other than that ....it's basically an airplane engine..... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A rotary engine, or formly known as the "wankel" engine was created/invented by Felix Wankel back in the 1920s i believe, prototype was designed an released in 1959. Mazda well know for the RX(Rotary Experiment) Gen cars 1-8. There are a few kinds of rotary engines, the ones in airplanes, and the ones used in cars/trucks. The basic rotary engine from a car IE Rx7. has a 13b rotary engine, which is a 2 rotor model. The rotary engine , instead of a traditional piston engine does not go up an down, instead goes in circular motion (which allows it to get way more RPMs). there are plenty of rotary engines 12a,13b,20b, and 26b(which is hard to come close too...AND ALOT OF $$$$$) thats basically a lil about the rotary engine!!!

How does piston type rotary actuator works?

If you are speaking of the 13B N/A, the pistons that actuate the 6th port sleeves operate via vacuum from the "Pick up Tube" on the catalytic converter on the Exhaust piping. Either you have a rotary engine or a piston engine.

Will a rx-7 rotary engine fit into a Mazda 98-99 Mazda protege?

Yes, the engine block of the 13B rotary engine wieghs about 85-100lbs. its very small, most likely smaller than the 4cyl in the Protege. i know because i own 3 rx7's. hope this helps.

What is faster nsx or rx7?

Since RX-7's have a completely different engine, 1.3 liters may sound small but it's not. Most compare the power displaced by a 13b rotary to that of a 6 cylinder piston engine.
