Abstract

Better combustion in the engine occurs when it gets good breathing. Inlet manifold is the device attached to
the engine which provides air/fuel charge for the combustion inside the cylinder. This combustion occurring in cylinder
also depends on the type of flow entering through inlet manifold. Swirl and turbulence created in flow will distribute
charge to each corner of cylinder uniformly. This leads to uniform complete combustion thereby improving performance
and emission. Studies of various literatures indicate similar results. There are scopes to change the g eometry of inlet
manifold and improve the performance and emission of engine. This trend provided motivation to carry out a review on
such research work. It will help in making the basis for an intended research work in similar direction.
