ABSTRACT:
A heat transfer system is used for heating a viscous fuel supplied to a diesel engine. The heat transfer system includes a heat exchanger provided at a predetermined location within the heat transfer system. A hot fluid and viscous fuel are circulated in a heat exchanging relationship within the heat exchanger to heat the viscous fuel supplied to the engine from a first temperature to a second temperature.
