In recent years, small diesel engines for industrial use are required to achieve still higher power output per engine size (high power density) and to have the performance to comply with stringent exhaust emissions standards as well. To meet these social demands and market requirements, there are various engineering tasks yet to accomplish. In this paper, two important technical issues have been focused, those are, combustion system improvement to enable lower exhaust emissions and higher power output than conventional models and new cooling system as a solution for increased heat load issue accompanying the progress of high power density. Firstly, for combustion system improvement, the swirl adjustment technique has been developed that will optimize the swirl ratio for each engine application with different load and speed condition.
