What are the specifications of the BMW M54 engine?
1 Answers
BMW M54 engine has a bore of 84 mm, a stroke of 89.6 mm, a maximum power of 170 kW, and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. Six important parameters of automotive engines: Maximum Power: The RPM range at which the engine delivers maximum power. Theoretically, the higher the RPM at which maximum power occurs, the more power the engine can continuously extract. Maximum Torque: This can be understood as the strength of the engine, such as the force needed to turn a wrench or steer the wheel. It determines the car's acceleration time from a standstill, often referred to as burst power. The greater the torque, the faster the car accelerates from a standstill, and the shorter the time it takes to reach a specified speed. Displacement: Displacement can be thought of as the engine's lung capacity. It is one of the most important parameters of an engine, directly related to many of its technical specifications. Number of Cylinders: Common numbers of cylinders in automotive engines are 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 16. Number of Valves: Refers to the intake and exhaust valves of a cylinder. The intake valve is directly connected to the intake manifold and is the inlet through which the engine draws in the air-fuel mixture (or fresh air). The exhaust valve is connected to the exhaust manifold and is the outlet through which the engine expels combustion waste gases. The number of valves per cylinder refers to the number of valves each cylinder has, which can be two, three, four, five, or even six valves. Compression Ratio: Simply put, in the engine cylinder, a piston moves back and forth in a straight line repeatedly in a continuous cycle.
