Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19812831A1] The invention relates to an internal combustion engine with at least one cylinder bank of cylinders (12) arranged in a row in at least one cylinder block, and at least one fluid cooling system allocated to a particular cylinder bank. Said fluid cooling system has at least one fluid channel (10) configured in a cylinder block. This fluid channel (10) conducts fluid through the cylinder block in order to provide a water jacket adjacent to the cylinders (12) for cooling the same. Said fluid channel (10) is delimited by a floor (16) on the crankcase side in a cylinder block situated between a cylinder head and the crankcase. This floor (16) of the fluid channel (10) is configured in the form of a curved plane.
