Abstract

This current paper provides an update to the well-known Cosworth Casting process. This paper revisits results first reported in 2009 and compares them with the latest generation of innovations that have further improved casting performance for 2019 model year engines. Traditionally only the main bearing saddle areas of the cylinder block casting were targeted for enhanced solidification via integral chilling elements. In this latest evolution, mechanical properties of other areas of the casting have further been enhanced and result in a complete solution for high-performance diesel and gasoline cylinder block castings.
