ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Method and apparatus for reducing fuel consumption in an internal combustion engine. An internal combustion engine (M) is fitted with two diffe- rent means for increasing fuel efficiency : a Rankine cycle circuit for recovering heat energy dissipated by the engi- ne ; and a supercharger (S). The recovered heat energy is transformed into mechanical energy by a turbine (T), and may be applied directly to the engine's output shaft (10). The supercharger (S) is driven mechanically from the engi- ne's output shaft (10). This arrangement enables the effect of the means for increasing fuel efficiency to be substan- tially cumulative by preventing one of said means from redu- cing the potential gain in efficiency available from the other.
