Abstract
A coolant circulation system for an engine includes a cylinder block passage and a cylinder head passage, which are provided respectively in a cylinder block portion and a cylinder head portion of the engine. These two passages serve as passages through which a coolant flows to cool the cylinder block portion and the cylinder head portion. The cylinder block passage and the cylinder head passage are connected in parallel to each other. The coolant circulation system further includes a first heat exchanger connected to the cylinder block passage, a second heat exchanger connected to the cylinder head passage, a radiator connected to both the cylinder block passage and the cylinder head passage, and a control unit capable of controlling flow rates of the coolant flowing through the cylinder block passage and the cylinder head passage respectively.
