Actual Rotary Displacement Request

NoDOHC · 06-07-2011, 12:52 AM

As I stated before, it is merely a difference in frame of reference. Each rotor housing undergoes one full cycle during each revolution, but each rotor face will require 3 rotations for a complete cycle.

Because both the housing and the rotor are required to displace air, both frames of reference are valid.

I think that Peter, Barry and Vex have done a very good job of illustrating the concepts that we all need to take away from this discussion. This is a good thread.
