Audi+rotary engines!



While off on a random search to learn more about rotary engines, I found
something very interesting(and relevent, thank god!)

Title:	Development Of A Natural Gas Stratified Charge Rotary Engine.
Authors:	Sierens, R.; Verdonck, W.
Source:	SAE Int'l Congress and Exposition, Detroit, Mich., Feb. 25-March 1,
1985. (SAE Technical Paper 850
Pages:	13
Date:

Abstract:	The purpose of this study was to develop and test a
prototype natural gas stratified rotary engine. A water model was used to
determine the best positions of separate inlet ports for air and gas. The
engine was then built by Audi NSU and tested by the University of Gent
laboratories. Results for different stratification configurations are
given.


Can't find the actual article, but it sounds neat....
