Cylinder arrangement (1) and method for cooling the cylinder arrangement (1) addresses a solution with which the heat transfer from a combustion chamber (6) of an internal combustion engine located in a cylinder liner (2) of the cylinder arrangement (1) into a region (7) surrounding the cylinder liner (2), such as a cylinder block or crankcase, is controlled in a temperature-dependent manner. Arrangement solves said problem by providing a jacket (9), the expansion of which changes depending on temperature, arranged between the cylinder liner (2) and the region (7) surrounding the cylinder liner (2). The method uses the cylinder liner (2) with a jacket (9), expands depending on temperature and surrounds the cylinder liner (2); jacket (9) forms a gap (10) between jacket (9) and region (7) in a first temperature range; jacket (9) forms no gap (10) between jacket (9) and region (7) in a second temperature range.
A cylinder arrangement (1), comprising a cylinder liner (2) for receiving a piston (3) and a region (7) surrounding the cylinder liner (2), wherein a jacket (9) having an expansion that changes as a function of temperature is arranged between the cylinder liner (2) and the region (7) surrounding the cylinder liner (2), and that a jacket (9) which forms a gap (10) in a first temperature range and does not form a gap (10) in a second temperature range is arranged as the jacket (9), wherein the gap is disposed in the first temperature range between the jacket (9) and the surrounding region (7).
A method for cooling a cylinder arrangement (1), comprising the steps of:
