ABSTRACT:
A rotary combustion engine having intermeshing rotors, and provided with external transfer passageways which connect the rotor chambers and function as combustion chambers for air compressed by the intermeshing of the rotors. The engine may also be provided with peripheral holding areas communicating with the rotor chambers and with air intake passageways through each lobe of the rotors, which are configured to provide a supercharging effect when the rotors are rotated. The engine may further be provided with notches in the periphery of each rotor hub for admitting air compressed by the intermeshing of the rotors into the transfer passageways in timed relationship to the rotation of the rotors.
