The current Brazilian technological scenario undergoes major transformations, the automobile industry is part of this panorama, where new technologies are presented and the other improved, in this segment we have non-ferrous aluminum alloys, which with the addition of alloys transform into alloys of high performance. Elements of aluminum alloys undergo modifications in their mechanical properties with variation of temperatures, deformation, chemical composition among others. The present work aims at comparing the thermomechanical properties of the experimental results and computational simulations of Al-0.05% Cu- [0.35-0.45] % Fe-0.22% Zr alloy for application in the automotive industry. The alloy was obtained from Al-EC modified by iron insertions in the range of [0.35 - 0.45] % and 0.22% Zr.
