Component Material Selection For A Small/Mid-Sized BMW Engine Created By: Adam Gill
Objective: Select materials for five specified parts in a four-stroke engine, for a BMW 3 Series (shown below). This presentation only illustrates the elementary materials engineering considerations, for the selection of suitable materials, given predetermined operational conditions, for five engine components.
Engine Block Considerations: A criterion weighting, and decision matrix compiled in excel.
Engine Block Considerations: Fine Material Selection within CES EDUPACK LEVEL 3.
Engine Block Considerations: Final Selection after NINE selection graph…
Engine Block Material Conclusion: I propose an alloy of the following two Materials: 50% composition by weight Aluminum, 2618, wrought, T4 – Chosen due to its low thermal expansion. 50% composition by weight Magnesium, ZC71, wrought– Chosen due to its high fatigue failure and ease of manufacture.
