This diagram illustrates the intricate workings of the Bristol Centaurus 661 engine, a mechanical masterpiece designed and developed by the renowned engineering firm, D Napier and Son. This engine, a significant contribution to the field of aviation propulsion, was produced between 1938 and 1957. The Centaurus 661 was a 14-cylinder, two-row, supercharged, air-cooled, radial engine. Its distinctive design featured an innovative 'W' configuration, with each bank of cylinders arranged in a 'V' formation around the crankshaft. This configuration offered several advantages, including improved cooling, reduced frontal area, and enhanced engine balance. The engine's impressive power output of 1,750 horsepower was achieved through a combination of factors, including a displacement of 31.6 liters, a compression ratio of 6.5:1, and a supercharger delivering 11.5 psi of boost. The Centaurus 661 was also known for its exceptional reliability and ease of maintenance, making it a popular choice for various military and civilian applications. The development of the Centaurus 661 engine marked a significant milestone in the history of aviation engineering. Its advanced design and innovative features set new standards for power, efficiency, and durability. This diagram provides a unique glimpse into the intricacies of this remarkable engine, showcasing the ingenuity and expertise of D Napier and Son. 3.
