Zusammenfassung:Particular embodiments of the present invention provide novel fluid-cooled cylinder liners. Preferred liners are annular cylinders containing a plurali ty of passages arranged generally parallel to the axis of the cylinders, and integrated between the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinders. Preferably , the integral passages are arranged so that they are typically closer to the outer surface of the liner than the inner surface. Each passage has at least two openings. A passage with two openings on opposite end of the cylinder ru ns the entire length of the liner, while a passage with a opening at one end of the liner and a second opening along a surface of the liner runs only for a fraction of the liner length.
