  2. Radial engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_engine

    Radial engine in a biplane. The radial engine is a reciprocating type internal combustion engine configuration in which the cylinders "radiate" outward from a central crankcase like the spokes of a wheel. It resembles a stylized star when viewed from the front, and is called a "star engine" in some other languages.

  3. Bristol Centaurus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Centaurus

    The Centaurus had a cylinder swept volume of 3,272 cu in (53.6 L), nearly as much as the American 3,347.9 cu in (54.9 L) Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone large radial, making the Centaurus one of the largest aircraft piston engines to enter production, while that of the Hercules was 2,363 cu in (38.7 L). The nearly 40 per cent higher capacity was ...

  4. Bristol Perseus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Perseus

    This allowed a smaller engine to produce the same power as a larger one, leading to better fuel efficiency and compact design, particularly in multi-row radial engines. Roy Fedden , Bristol's primary engine designer, became interested in the concept and by 1927 he had constructed a working two-cylinder V as a test bed, with the idea of ...

  5. Bristol Pegasus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Pegasus

    In Italy Alfa Romeo Avio built both the Jupiter (126-RC35) and the Pegasus under licence, with the engine based on the Pegasus designated as the Alfa Romeo 126-RC34 with the civil version as the 126-RC10. [2] In Czechoslovakia it was built by Walter Engines and was known as the Pegas. [3] Approximately 32,000 Pegasus engines were built. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_R-1690_Hornet

    The Pratt & Whitney R-1690 Hornet was a widely used American aircraft engine. Developed by Pratt & Whitney, 2,944 were produced from 1926 through 1942. [1] It first flew in 1927. It was a single-row, 9-cylinder air-cooled radial design. Displacement was 1,690 cubic inches (27.7 L). It was built under license in Italy as the Fiat A.59.

  7. Lycoming R-680 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycoming_R-680

    The Lycoming R-680 is a nine-cylinder air-cooled radial engine, the first aero engine produced by Lycoming. The engine was produced in two types, the E and B series; both are essentially the same. The B4E was available in a trainer version with a front exhaust collector "ring" for use without cylinder air baffles.

  8. Bristol Type 133 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Type_133

    Powered by a Bristol Mercury radial engine, the Type 133 was a low-wing cantilever monoplane and was the first aircraft intended for RAF service to have a retractable undercarriage. [1] It was also the first Bristol aircraft to use stressed-skin construction for the wings, using recently invented Alclad sheets.

  9. Continental R-670 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_R-670

    The Continental R-670 (factory designation W670) was a seven-cylinder four-stroke radial aircraft engine produced by Continental displacing 668 cubic inches (11 litres) and a dry weight of 465 lb (211 kg). Horsepower varied from 210 to 240 at 2,200 rpm. The engine was the successor to Continental's first radial engine, the 170 hp Continental A ...
