10.11.2 Heating system device
Regardless of whether it is a separate system or an integrated one, the principle of its operation is the same for all the cars and has not changed for quite some time. The basic idea is to use the heat of the engine, which is created during its operation. Due to the fact that the heat from the engine is removed by means of cooling liquid, it will be also necessary for heating system.
A couple of hoses (inlet and outlet ones), a valve (shutter) and a heat exchanger, which is a reduced version of the radiator (shown in Figure 10.15), are installed into the engine cooling system in order to implement the engine cooling system.
