Abstract
An internal combustion engine includes a deactivatable cylinder group, a constantly operating cylinder group, a first water passage, a second water passage, an upstream integrated water passage, a downstream integrated water passage, a connecting passage, a third water passage, and a device. The downstream integrated water passage includes a junction and an upstream end. The upstream end is closer to the second water passage than to the first water passage in the downstream integrated water passage. The third water passage connects the connecting passage and a portion provided between the junction and the upstream end in the downstream integrated water passage. The device is provided adjacent to at least a part of the third water passage to exchange heat with water flowing in the third water passage.
