When the cylinder cover valve 06 is closed, the coolant in the cylinder cover water jacket 03 can not flow to the radiator 12 through the one-way valve 21 and then flows into the engine cylinder cover and the engine cylinder body through the engine water pump 01, and the situation that the warm-up is influenced when the cold water in the radiator 12 enters the engine is prevented.
Since the heat demand of the engine is high during the engine warm-up process of the transmission oil cooler 10 and the warm air core body 15, in order to ensure the engine warm-up performance and further improve the fuel economy and the passenger compartment warm air comfort, the first switch valve 14 and the second switch valve 11 are arranged on the sixth branch A6 and the seventh branch A7, and the first switch valve 14 and the second switch valve 11 can be driven to be switched on and off according to the ambient temperature and the driving condition.
