The invention relates to a device for thermal control of recirculated gases in an internal combustion engine, comprising a liquid coolant circuit (1), connected to an internal combustion engine (2). The circuit (1) comprises first thermal coolant/air heat exchanger means (3), such as a radiator, arranged in a first loop (13), connected to the engine (2), second thermal coolant/recirculated exhaust gas heat exchanger means (4) arranged in a second loop (14), connected in parallel to the first loop (13), in order to permit the supply of the second thermal heat exchanger means (4) with coolant from the first thermal heat exchanger means (3), characterized in that the ends of the second loop (14) are directly connected to the body of the first thermal exchanger means (3).
Device for thermal control of recirculated gases of an internal combustion engine, comprising a circuit of liquid coolant connected to an internal combustion engine, the circuit comprising first coolant/air heat exchanger means, arranged in a first loop connected to the engine, second coolant/recirculated exhaust gases heat exchanger means arranged in a second loop connected in parallel to the first loop to enable supplying the second heat exchanger means with coolant from the first heat exchanger means, wherein the ends of the second loop are directly connected to the body of the first heat exchanger means.
