Abstract: A cooling system for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The cooling system includes a radiator for exchanging heat between a coolant and ambient air, and a coolant pump for circulating the coolant. The coolant system further includes a first set of fluid connection branches between the coolant pump and the engine block, the cylinder head and the exhaust manifold and a second set of fluid connection branches between the engine block, cylinder head and exhaust manifold and the radiator and/or the coolant pump. A first controlled valve intercepts the coolant towards the radiator so that the coolant is recirculated towards the coolant pump. A second controlled valve intercepts the coolant from the cylinder block. A third controlled valve intercepts the coolant from the integrated exhaust manifold.

Abstract: A computer program, system and method are provided for thermally regulating an injector injecting a reducing agent into an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine. A pump is activated to deliver a coolant in a coolant circuit having a portion in heat exchange relation with the injector. A value is determined for a mass flow rate of the coolant delivered by the pump. A value is calculated for a temperature of the injector as a function of the determined value of the mass flow rate. A difference is calculated between the calculated value of the injector temperature and a predetermined set-point value thereof, and the mass flow rate of the coolant delivered by the pump is adjusted on the basis of the calculated difference.

Abstract: A cooling system selectively cools an engine and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) component of the engine. The cooling system includes a plumbing system with a plurality of flow branches, including an engine branch, an EGR branch, and a feed branch. The engine branch defines an engine flow passage through which the coolant flows to cool the engine. The EGR branch defines an EGR flow passage through which the coolant flows to cool the EGR component. The feed branch defines a feed flow passage. The cooling system has a first operating configuration in which the EGR flow passage is configured to receive coolant flow from the engine flow passage. The cooling system has a second operating configuration in which the EGR flow passage is configured to receive coolant flow from the feed flow passage instead of the engine flow passage.

Abstract: A method of operating a cooling circuit of an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The engine is equipped with an engine head, and the cooling circuit includes a pump configured to deliver a variable flow of coolant through the cooling circuit. A coolant flow rate to be delivered by the pump is calculated as a function of an engine load, an engine speed and a desired engine head temperature, and the pump is operated to deliver the calculated coolant flow rate.
