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.

A vehicle control device for a vehicle including an engine that is a power source of the vehicle, and a heating unit that heats a coolant of the engine includes a water temperature determination part that determines whether or not a temperature of the coolant is lower than a predetermined value, and a heating control part that performs an operation limitation to stop an output of the heating unit or to limit the output of the heating unit to a predetermined upper limit value or lower, when the water temperature determination part determines that the temperature of the coolant is lower than the predetermined value.

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.
