Abstract

A method, for providing supplementary heat energy into a cabin of a work machine when a main heating system of the cabin is inactive, includes using an auxiliary heat source to impart heat to an auxiliary coolant stream. The main energy form powers a main heat source of the main heating system. Further, the method includes providing an auxiliary fluid circuit to fluidly couple the auxiliary heat source with one or more heat exchangers to supply the auxiliary coolant stream from the auxiliary heat source to the one or more heat exchangers for circulation therewithin. During the circulation of the auxiliary coolant stream within the one or more heat exchangers, the auxiliary coolant stream dissipates heat to an air flowing across the one or more heat exchangers and into the cabin to provide the supplementary heat energy into the cabin.
