Engine Weight Analysis
(OP)
Will I be able to best estimate engine component weight from flow properties or/ geometric properties?

Jane's used to have a whole bunch of data on engines. Maybe pick something out from there, then ask the manufacturer ?
RE: Engine Weight Analysis
You might be able to do web searches for engines, perhaps on manufacturer web sites.
If you give a bit more explanation on what you're doing you may get better answers.

Well,I think one has to consider both mechanical and aero design constraints before sizing a component. If a manufacturer requires a high bypass turbofan engine then its weight will be a function of performance parameters ( mainly dimensionless group) like pressure ratio, efficiency.
Do you have any comments?
