<<
The each rotor will fire 3 times per rotation. This would be a total of 6
exhast pulses per eccentic shaft revolution. I thought that a 2 cylinder 4
stroke would have 1 pulse (1/2 per cylinder) per crankshaft revolution. If
I am not correct on either, could someone explain why? >>
Simple: 4 strokes = intake (1) compression (2) Power (3) Exhaust (4)
Each stroke takes 180 degrees of revolution therefore: Intake lasts 180
degrees
Compresson lasts 180 degrees Power lasts 180 degrees and Exhausts lasts 180
degrees. 2 cyl 4 stroke would make 1 power stroke for each revolution of the
crankshaft.
