PURPOSE:To supply hot water through the efficient utilization of the heat generated without damage of a shaft output of an internal combustion engine, by installing the heated part of the internal combustion engine under water. CONSTITUTION:A heat insulating container 1 is filled with water 2, and an internal combustion engine 7 and an apparatus 8 for utilizing a power are mounted at a cover 6 of the container 1. The heated part of the internal combustion engine 7 is dipped in the water. The heat generated during the operation of the internal combustion engine 7 is effectively absorbed with the water 2, and high temperature exhaust gas produced passes through a heat exchanger 12 and an exhaust pipe 13, which are immersed in the water 2, for exhausting to the outside, whereby the heat possessed by exhaust gas is also absorbed with the water 2. Thus, the water 2 in the container 1 is efficiently heated to feed the hot water. |
