ABSTRACT:
A heat generator for a motor vehicle comprises a rotor (1), a stator (13) in which the rotor (1) induces by rotation electrical currents that generate heat in the stator (13), and a coolant duct (16) adjacent to the stator (13) through which flows a liquid for extracting the heat generated in the stator (13). A device for regulating the working temperature of a liquid-cooled internal combustion engine comprises such a heat generator and an actuator (19) for the stator (13) for regulating the heat generated by the stator (13) by changing the distance between the stator (13) and the rotor (1). The stator (13) is mounted to be pivotal relative to the rotor (1) for changing the distance between them and thus for regulating the heat generated in the stator (13) and regulating the working temperature of the internal combustion engine (3).
