The Renault 70 hp or Type WB was a British V-8 aero engine that first ran circa 1913. The engine was manufactured by Renault Limited of West Brompton, London between August 1914 and December 1918, three other companies, including Rolls-Royce, also produced the engine. A variant known as the Type WC used an external oil pump as opposed to the internal pump of the Type WB.〔Lumsden 2003, p. 180〕 The Renault V-8 engines were noted as inefficient but reliable, the inefficiency being mainly due to the excessively rich fuel/air mixture used to assist cooling.〔Gunston 1989, p. 135.〕 ==Applications== *Airco DH.1 *Armstrong Whitworth F.K.2 *Armstrong Whitworth S.S.27 airship *Blackburn Type E *Bristol B.R.7 *Caudron G.3 *Central Centaur IVA *Farman MF.7 Longhorn *Farman Shorthorn *Flanders F.4 *HMA no.2 airship, short-lived modification *Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2 *Royal Aircraft Factory F.E.2 *Royal Aircraft Factory R.E.1 *White & Thompson Bognor Bloater 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renault 70 hp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
