Abstract
Upon a valve rotation angle of a flow rate control valve exceeding a radiator-flow-path closed position during changing of the valve rotation angle of the flow rate control valve in an opening direction of a radiator flow path from a closed state of the radiator flow path, a cooling water starts to circulate through the radiator flow path, and an outlet water temperature or an inlet water temperature of an engine starts to drop. The radiator-flow-path closed position is learned as a valve rotation angle of the flow rate control valve immediately before the outlet water temperature or the inlet water temperature starts to drop during changing of the valve rotation angle of the flow rate control valve in the opening direction of the radiator flow path from the closed state of the radiator flow path.
