Abstract
A rotary valve internal combustion engine has a piston connected to a crankshaft, where the piston is reciprocatable in a cylinder, and a combustion chamber being defined in part by the piston. The engine has a rotary valve rotatable in a valve housing fixed relative to the cylinder, the rotary valve having a valve body containing a volume defining, in part, the combustion chamber and further having in a wall part thereof a port giving, during rotation of the valve, fluid communication successively to and from the combustion chamber via inlet and exhaust ports in the valve housing. The valve body has a non-uniform radial profile along its axial length and/or about its axis of rotation to accommodate changes in the profile of the valve body during operation to maintain a substantially constant clearance between the valve body and the housing throughout the length of the valve body.
