This case study describes the development approach of internal combustion engines (ICE). Therefore, a three-engine generations approach is considered, and systems engineering principles and best practices are implemented. One of the main drivers for powertrain development in general is the need to increase efficiency and subsequently reduce emissions. The increasing complexity of powertrain architectures and their attributes requires consideration of the overall system when optimizing the efficiency of the powertrain element like the ICE. This case study explains the methodology with a specific focus on the optimization of mechanical efficiency and the minimization of parasitic losses of an internal combustion engine. The impact of these measures on efficiency is discussed together with the related cost impact for a passenger car application.
