Nope, a rotary aircraft engine is one where the crankshaft does not turn and the engine spins around it. The prop is connected to the engine block. Notice how the cylinders and block spin on this one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5vTl3yOrrx4pNk

That PW 4360 is kind of like two engines of a B-17, stuck together. A MONSTER. The B-36 Peacemaker had 6 of these, in pusher configuration, plus 4 jet engines. The "Spruce Goose" sported 8. (the 4360 part is the displacement... in cubic inches)

These engines need a prop out front for cooling if you are going to run them for more than a couple of seconds. They will overheat quickly.
@Averageskill8 ай бұрын
I was thinking the same thing...although a lot of the motors had no cooling fins either....liquid cooled? P-51 Mustang did pretty good for itself being liquid cooled....along with the Spitfire, Hurricane, P38, Mosquito, typhoon/tempest, and Yak

@sullivanrachael8 ай бұрын
The thing about big radial engines is good reliability and the lack of a liquid cooling system. Radials are kind of a brute force solution to an engineering problem. As an example, the engine in the P47 was able to deliver massive amounts of power with its turbo supercharger, and survive combat so well it was one of the most survivable combat aircraft of WW2: in some respects one of the best aircraft - because it allowed its pilots to survive and learn from their combat experiences. It was also a very expensive machine to build, but that in part was it size; the jug was big, which allowed it to have a comfortable air-conditioned cockpit in later versions. All in part possible due to its huge engine.
