rotorhiba
Rotorhiba is a term that refers to a specific type of rotary engine component. It is a key part in the design and function of certain rotary internal combustion engines, most notably those developed by Mazda. The rotorhiba is essentially a triangular rotor that rotates within an epitrochoidal housing. Its shape and movement are crucial for the engine's cycle of intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust. The specific geometry of the rotor and its housing ensures that these four phases occur sequentially as the rotor spins. The rotorhiba has a complex internal structure with seals at its apexes and sides to maintain compression and prevent leakage between the different chambers formed within the housing. This design allows for a compact and high-revving engine with fewer moving parts compared to a conventional piston engine. The efficiency and performance characteristics of engines utilizing the rotorhiba have made them popular in various automotive applications, particularly in sports cars.
