ABSTRACT:
The disclosure is of an axial flow rotary internal combustion engine constructed in three sections, a compressor section, a combustion section and an expander section. The compressor section includes male and female rotors with complementary, single turn lobe and groove in which an air-fuel mixture is compressed and discharged from a port at the end of the groove as the port overtakes and traverses an arcuate intake port in the cylindrical combustion block, which is rotating at a slower speed. After the intake port is traversed and sealed off, an ignition port in the combustion chamber exposes a spark plug and the mixture is ignited. Substantially complete combustion takes place while the combustion chamber is sealed off and isolated. Then an entry port into the helical groove of female expander rotor overtakes and traverses an arcuate combustion chamber exhaust port and the combusted gases are discharged and expanded into the expander section. The expander section comprises a pair of complementary male and female rotors with complementary helical groove and lobe and are of a larger volume than the compressor rotors to enable full expansion. Power is taken off a shaft of one of the expander rotors.
