Method and systems for adjusting flow resistance in an engine cooling system

Various methods and systems are provided for adjusting flow resistances in an engine cooling system. In one example, a method for an engine includes adjusting a first resistance of a radiator main return line to be greater than a second resistance of a sub-cooled return line in response to an engine...

Zusammenfassung:	Various methods and systems are provided for adjusting flow resistances in an engine cooling system. In one example, a method for an engine includes adjusting a first resistance of a radiator main return line to be greater than a second resistance of a sub-cooled return line in response to an engine speed below a threshold speed, the sub-cooled return line arranged in parallel with the radiator main return line in an engine cooling system.
