The Wankles came out in the mid 60's I think .I remember seeing it in Popular Mechanics .If memory serves they had problems with the rotor seals.Plus in any size they loved gasoline .

That was also about the time they experimented with turbine engines in large trucks which also did not prove out .

The design is simple .It's basically like an air injector pump used for anti pollution on autos .Which I might add makes an excellent replacement for an aerobic sewer system .
