A method of pre-operational warming-up of internal combustion engines

In the traditional methods, phase transition heat accumulators are used as a source of heat. They utilize and accumulate a waste energy of internal combustion engines available in waste gases or cooling liquid. The method proposed provides for application of a substance which can exist in a liquid phase at the temperatures below the “melting-crystallization” phase transition temperature, and release hidden crystallization heat upon external intended interference resulting in a formation of crystallization clusters, as an accumulating matter.
