Liquid Piston (not a Wankel) prototyping, and building a custom dynamometer. Oh boy! Today's video is all about the first few months of prototyping my 3D printed, Liquid Piston Rotary engine. This is an alternate rotary engine design to the Wankel and features an impressive power to size ratio, plus a design that is easier to seal. While I made some great progress, the engine isn't self-sufficient just yet, but it is close!
Additionally, I built a dynamometer so I can measure the performance of all 4 of my air engines (Tom Stanton's OG design, my original Wankel, Integza's Wankel, and the new Liquid Piston). Each of these engines has it's own strengths and weaknesses, so it will be super interesting to quantify the performance of each.
The project is open sourced, all files can be found here
