This paper comprises an experimental determination [2] of inlet air swirl in a single cylinder four stroke diesel engine through modified inlet valve. The paddle wheel type test rig is used to determine inlet air swirl ratios though different inlet valve lifts. Three varieties of inlet valves are tested to find the swirl ratio number which includes a base inlet poppet valve as a reference base model.. The results are compared with base inlet poppet valve and experimentally Swirl Ratios are analyzed. Keywords— Inlet Air swirl, Engines, Inlet valves, Swirl Test rig
