The present article analyzes different definitions of the swirl number and their application to control the mixing process in the cylinder of direct injection diesel engines. We first of all discuss the origins of the existing methods used to control swirl, which are usually based on the presence of a stirring device, or rotometer, in the cylinder head. A new possibility is then proposed for determining the swirl number, based on equivalent angular velocity, and a comparison made of results obtained using the different techniques available for measuring swirl in motor cylinders.
