A valve, which is rotated about a rotational axis, includes a valve outer peripheral portion. The valve outer peripheral portion has a valve inflow port for supplying fluid to a flow passage of the valve outer peripheral portion and valve outflow ports for discharging the fluid from the flow passage. The valve outflow ports include: a main outflow port which is configured to communicate with a whole of a seat opening of a valve seat; and a plurality of intermediate outflow ports, each of which is configured to communicate with a portion of the seat opening. An axial dimension of each intermediate outflow port, which is measured in an axial direction of the rotational axis, is smaller than an axial dimension of the seat opening, which is measured in the axial direction. The axial dimension of each intermediate outflow port is progressively changed in a circumferential direction.

An axial flux motor water pump comprising a housing, a cover attached to the housing, a stator mounted within the housing, the stator comprising a plurality of stator poles mounted in a ring, each stator pole comprising an electric wire winding, a rotor journaled to the housing in cooperating relation to the stator on a single bearing, an impeller fixed to an end of the rotor, a plurality of magnets mounted to an end of the rotor in cooperative relation to the stator poles, a seal between the rotor and housing whereby the stator and magnets are in a dry zone, the stator enrobed in thermal potting within the housing; and power electronics contained in the cover. The rotor portion of the rotor may be manufactured in a sintering process.

Methods and systems are provided for a coolant system. In one example, a method may include diagnosing a condition of a pump of the coolant system based on a temperature change of coolant. The diagnostic may determine if the pump is stuck on or off.
