A system includes a coolant pump and a first rotary valve. The coolant pump is configured to be mechanically driven by an engine and to send coolant to an inlet of the engine. The first rotary valve is configured to receive coolant from an outlet of the engine and to send coolant to a first radiator and a heater core. The first rotary valve is adjustable to a zero flow position to prevent coolant flow to the first radiator and the heater core and thereby increase a rate at which the engine warms coolant flowing therethrough.

An apparatus for controlling an active air flap (AAF) of a vehicle may include a plurality of sensors configured to detect status information of the vehicle; an opening degree controller configured to control an opening degree of the AAF; and a processor configured to determine a target flow and a target opening degree of the AAF based on the status information, calculate an initial speed of a wake generated by a preceding vehicle based on vehicle information of the preceding vehicle, obtain a speed of the wake when the wake arrives the vehicle based on a speed of the vehicle, an inter-vehicle distance between the vehicle and the preceding vehicle, and the initial speed of the wake, correct the target opening degree based on the speed of the wake, and adjust the opening degree of the AAF corresponding to the corrected target opening degree.

Methods and systems are provided for adjusting operation of each of a pump and a fan of an engine cooling system. In one example, a method may include adjusting a speed of the pump and a speed of the fan based on one or more of a temperature of coolant entering a heat exchanger of the cooling system, a temperature of air exiting the heat exchanger, and a temperature of air entering the heat exchanger.

A thermostat is provided at a connection portion between a cooling water supply passage and a bypass passage. When the temperature of the cooling water lies in a low temperature range lower than a first reference temperature, the thermostat allows introduction of the cooling water from the cooling water discharge passage into the cooling water supply passage via the bypass passage and also prevents introduction of the cooling water from the radiator into the engine via the cooling water supply passage. When the temperature of the cooling water lies in a high temperature range equal to or higher than a second reference temperature which is higher than the first reference temperature, the thermostat allows introduction of the cooling water from the radiator into the engine via the cooling water supply passage and also prevents introduction of the cooling water from the cooling water discharge passage into the cooling water supply passage via the bypass passage.

The separation efficiency of carbon dioxide is improved by making the temperature of exhaust gas further low. An exhaust gas purification apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes a first heat exchanger arranged in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine and configured to carry out heat exchange between outside air and exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine, a second heat exchanger arranged in the exhaust passage and configured to carry out heat exchange between a circulating heating medium and the exhaust gas, and a carbon dioxide separator arranged in the exhaust passage at the downstream side of the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger and configured to separate carbon dioxide from the exhaust gas.

An agricultural system including an agricultural baler and a control unit. The baler includes a driveline including at least one heat generating component; a rotatable flywheel; a rotary input shaft connectable by the driveline to the rotatable flywheel; and at least one pump for supplying cooling fluid at a cooling fluid pressure to the at least one heat generating component. The control unit is configured to: receive baler-data indicative of one or more operating conditions of the agricultural baler; receive cooling-pressure-data indicative of a flow of the cooling fluid supplied by the at least one pump; set a threshold-condition based on the baler-data; and provide a control-signal to the agricultural baler based on a comparison between the cooling-pressure-data and the threshold-condition.

Systems and methods are provided for determining a temperature of a thermal system that includes fluid conduits. A sensor monitors a current state of the temperature. A controller receives a signal from the sensor that is representative of the current state; determines a flow in the fluid conduits; determines a noise covariance of the thermal system; processes a thermal model of the thermal system; predicts a next-step state of the parameter at a time after the current state; and corrects the next-step state based, at least in-part, on the noise covariance resulting in a corrected next-step state.

A cooling control system for a working machine includes a fan, a housing to which the fan is attached, a prime mover having an output shall, a rotor to be rotated by a rotating power of the output shaft and to be rotated with the housing by a fluid introduced to a gap formed between the housing and the rotor, a fluid setting circuit to set an introduction amount of the fluid introduced to the gap, and a control device to control the fluid setting circuit to control the fan. The control device includes a setting circuit to set a target rotation speed of the fan based on a responsiveness of an actual rotation speed of the fan at time of changing of the target rotation speed of the fan.
