Question about RPS and rotary revs
I was watching a diagram of how the rotary engine works, and I just need some quick clarification.
The E-shaft spins at 3 times the rotation of the rotor, correct? I assume that the RPMs of the engine are based on the rotations of the output shaft, therefore does this mean that the rotor is actually spinning at 1/3 the indicated RPM? i.e. at redline, my rotors are actually only doing 3000rpm?
Also, side question; Are the rotors synchronized or offset?
