The Renault 80 hp, or Type WS in British service, was a V-8 aero engine that first ran in 1914. The engine was manufactured in Britain by Renault Limited of West Brompton, London between August 1914 and December 1918, seven other companies, including Rolls-Royce and Brazil Straker, also produced the engine.〔Lumsden 2003, p. 181〕 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.6 *Alliance P.1 *Avro 548 *Caudron G.3 *Farman Shorthorn *Vickers F.B.7A 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 80 hp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
