The EGR system is one of important components in diesel engine. The regulation on NOx emission has been tightened up. Therefore, it is a significant issue to develop and commercialize the high efficient EGR cooler system that reduces NOx emission in DI diesel engine. Key performance factor of the EGR cooler system is how to properly design both wavy cooling fins and gas tubes. This paper proposes a high efficient EGR cooler that has been upgraded with both the optimized wavy cooling fins and the improved shape of structure. The evaluation of the heat exchange efficiency, outlet temperature, and gas pressure drop of the EGR cooler is performed with the prototype of the proposed EGR cooler. The result shows a good solution and will be implemented to the model of a clean diesel engine being developed for both domestic and overseas market.
