Abstract
A delivery device for delivering a medium and for heating the medium to be delivered, having a vehicle pump, an electric motor for driving the vehicle pump and a control unit for controlling the electric motor. For heating the medium in the vehicle pump, the control unit is designed to generate a first alternating electrical current in a conductor winding of the electric motor. This first alternating electrical current induces eddy currents in a component of the delivery device, by which the medium can be heated.
