    摘要: The present invention relates to a cooling device of internal combustion engine for vehicle and a control method thereof. The cooling device according to the present invention includes: an electric water pump; a bypass line bypassing a radiator; and a flow rate control valve for controlling a flow rate of cooling water circulating through the bypass line. During a low external air temperature state where the external air temperature is below a threshold, the cooling device increases the temperature of the cooling water by increasing the flow rate of the cooling water circulating through the bypass line as compared to during a high external air temperature state where the external air temperature is above the threshold, and increases a circulation flow rate of the cooling water by increasing a discharge flow rate of the electric water pump as compared to during the high external air temperature state.

    摘要: A coolant circulation system includes a coolant circuit including a water jacket, a motor-driven pump, an outlet liquid temperature sensor, and a controller. The controller executes variation determination control for driving the motor-driven pump to determine whether a variation in the temperature of the coolant in a diesel engine is equal to or less than a predetermined value based on an outlet temperature detected by the outlet liquid temperature sensor. The controller executes circulation stop control on condition that it is determined that the variation in the temperature of the coolant is equal to or less than the predetermined value. The controller changes the period during which the circulation stop control is executed in accordance with the outlet liquid temperature detected at the start of the circulation stop control.

    摘要: A coolant circuit is provided for an internal combustion engine having a compression machine for intake air. The coolant circuit includes a high-temperature circuit and a low temperature circuit. The high-temperature circuit is provided in order to cool the internal combustion engine by way of a coolant radiator and a first coolant pump arranged in the high-temperature circuit. The low-temperature circuit is provided with a second coolant pump in order to cool the intake air compressed by the compression machine by way of an intercooler and in order to cool a coolant of a coolant circuit in a condenser. The high-temperature circuit and the low-temperature circuit are cooling circuits which are separated from each other. The thermal base load of the low-temperature circuit is reduced by this design, whereby the pressure level in the coolant circuit can be reduced resulting positively in a reduction of the energy consumption.

    摘要: A water pump includes an impeller, a whirl chamber, a pump body including the impeller and the whirl chamber, a cover case portion and a gasket portion being positioned between the pump body and the cover case portion. The cover case portion is formed with an inlet flow passage in which a fluid is introduced to the whirl chamber and an outlet flow passage in which the fluid is discharged from the whirl chamber. The gasket portion is formed with an inlet hole opening from the whirl chamber to the inlet flow passage and an outlet hole opening from the whirl chamber to the outlet flow passage. The gasket portion includes a portion covering at least one of the inlet flow passage and the outlet flow passage in a state where the portion of the gasket portion is exposed by not being in contact with the pump body.

    摘要: A control valve includes a casing having an inlet port for a fluid, an axially rotatable valve accommodated in the casing and having a flow path communicating with the inlet port. An upstream outlet port and a downstream outlet port passing through the casing are formed at intervals in the casing. An upstream communication port and a downstream communication port, which respectively communicate between an inside of the flow path and the upstream outlet port and between the inside of the flow path and the downstream outlet port according to a rotational position of the valve are formed in the valve. A flowing direction changing portion for changing a flowing direction of the fluid in the flow passage is provided in a portion of the flow path which is located on a downstream side in relation to the upstream communication port in the flowing direction of the fluid.
