Abstract

A method of operating an internal combustion engine having a housing with a recess, and a piston rotatably mounted in the housing, wherein the housing and the piston form, over the course of shaft rotation, initial, second and third volumes in differing amounts for the phases of compression, combustion and expansion, in a manner that is smooth and continuous, which method includes (a) compressing air into a chamber formed by the recess and the piston, (b) introducing fuel into the chamber of compressed air, and (c) igniting the mixture of compressed air and fuel.
