Abstract
An internal combustion engine comprises a supercharger for supplying charge air and a charge air cooler, which is arranged near the front end of the engine and is adapted to be supplied with charge air. The charge air line extends through the charge air cooler to the air receiver and is connected by a directional valve to a branch line, which bypasses the charge air cooler. In order to achieve a space-saving and compact design, the supercharger and the directional valve are disposed near the rear end of the engine and the air receiver, which in itself constitutes the branch line, is connected at that end which is opposite to the charge air line via a tubular port or the like directly to the directional valve.
