Wankel Rotary Engine Puns

A list of puns related to "Wankel Rotary Engine"

Anyone ever work on a rotary (Wankel) engine?

I just learned that it is a thing today. Unfortunately the FAA Powerplant handbook had only a paragraph about this engine type. I am perplexed by how a triangle with rounded sides spins around in an oval cylinder. Any wisdom about this engine?

Are there any cars that have both piston-engine and Wankel/Rotary-engine variants?

I'm planning to investigate or compare wankel engines and their piston counterparts, and thought it would be most suitable to compare the efficiency and output of both engines placed in the same car. I don't have much experience when it comes to cars so I've been finding it difficult to find what I'm looking for.

It seems that Mazda's RX series is based around the Wankel-Engine, but I'm unsure if there were any that also applied the piston.

Any help would be appreciated.

A good example of a 1984-85 Mazda RX7 at Deerfoot City. The line of sports cars is arguably the most successful production car to use a Wankel rotary engine rather than the more common reciprocating pistons

The Wankel engine is a type of internal combustion engine using an eccentric rotary design to convert pressure into rotating motion. In contrast to reciprocating piston designs, the Wankel engine delivers advantages of simplicity, smoothness, compactness, high rpms, and high power-to-weight ratio. gfycat.com/gifs/detail/Un…

Why don't rotary engines rev up to 9-10 thousand RPM? Also the sound is wrong for the upgraded Wankel 1000bhp engine swap

So I finally unlocked the engine swap for the Mazda RX-7 FD3S, ponied up the hefty price for it, and was sad to notice that the engine barely hits 7k rpm. Not only that the engine sounds THE SAME as the stock Rotary engine that comes with the car.

Here is an example of how the car should sound, fully upgraded on 1000bhp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWr51ovhENI

I'm deeply saddened by this :(
