Abstract
A flow control valve is arranged to simultaneously perform coolant flow control and variable split cooling, according to control of a path opening degree of the flow control valve. The flow control valve can perform four-port control for variably controlling four ports at once by operation of the flow control valve, and thus can implement variable temperature control for increasing a temperature of an engine, rapid warming-up of the engine, while performing split cooling at the same time.
