Paper summarizes highlights of activity of Curtiss-Wright Corp in development of its rotating combustion engine series during past year; test work concentrated on two-rotor 200-hp class liquid-cooled engine, application testing of engine in vehicles, boats, and engine generator sets, and evaluation of basic component and engine design studies covering air-cooled, fuel injected, and spark ignited engines with heavy fuels for aircraft and other applications; field tests established acceptable automotive, marine, and power performance levels; capability to operate on heavy fuels and air-cooling at high performance levels was shown.
