A PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) was applied to measure in-cylinder velocity field according to inlet valve angle during intake stroke. Two engines, one is conventional DOHC 4 valve and the other is narrow valve angle, were used to compare real intake flow. The results show that the intake flow pattern of conventional engine is more complicated than that of narrow angle one in horizontal plane and the vertical component of in-cylinder flow is rapidly decayed at the end stage of intake. On the other hand, the flow pattern of narrow angle one is relatively well arranged in horizontal plane and the vertical velocity component remains so strongly that forms large-scale strong tumble. Two engines also form commonly three tumble; two are small and bellow the intake valve and one is large-scale. The center of large scale tumble moves to bottom of cylinder as the vertical velocity increases.
