Abstract
A rotary piston engine is provided that combines most of the advantages of an internal combustion engine with those of a turbine engine. The rotary piston engine improves on the existing internal combustion and turbine technology by achieving the same or better high end performance, while improving the efficiency during off-peak operations. The rotary piston engine includes an engine housing, at least one continuous cylinder doughnut, piston pedals, movable wall valves, at least one rotor and at least one point of rotation.
