[1] [2] [3] A revised edition was issued in 1961, and a paperback edition in 1969.
A pistonless rotary engine replaces the linear reciprocating motion of a piston with more complex compression/expansion motions with the objective of improving some aspect of the engine's operation, such as: higher efficiency thermodynamic cycles, lower mechanical stress, lower vibration, higher compression, or less mechanical complexity.
The most common W-type engine is the 4-bank type, with the Volkswagen Group experimenting with the Passat W8 and it’s 4.0 liter, 4-bank W8 engine and later implementing the concept with their Bentley division, creating a 6.0 liter W12 in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged variants.
