Abstract

Arrangement for supplying heat to the cooling fluid of a combustion engine, with a heating apparatus, which has a combustion chamber for gaseous or for liquid fuel, and with a heat exchange device, with which heat generated by the heating apparatus can be transferred to the cooling fluid. The heating apparatus is connected on the outside of the engine block of the combustion engine in such a way, that the heat transfer from the hot combustion gases from the combustion chamber to the cooling water or fluid takes place through the outer wall of the engine block.
