Abstract:
A vehicle includes an intercooler cooling fluid circuit coupled to and in fluid communication with a turbocharger of an internal combustion engine for circulating a flow of cooling fluid to the turbocharger to cool the turbocharger. A turbocharger cooling control valve controls fluid flow between the turbocharger and an intercooler. The turbocharger cooling control valve directs the flow of the cooling fluid to the intercooler when the engine is running, directs the flow of cooling fluid to the turbocharger when the engine is not running. The vehicle uses an intercooler pump for circulating the cooling fluid to both the intercooler when the vehicle is running and the turbocharger when the vehicle is not running.
