Verfahren zur Steuerung, bei einem Kaltstart, eines Kühlkreislaufs, durch ein Wärmetransportfluid, eines Verbrennungsmotors (1), mit dem ein Kraftfahrzeug ausgestattet ist, wobei der Kühlkreislauf stromabwärts des Verbrennungsmotors (1) mit einem Mittel (5) zur Abstellung des Durchsatzes, das eine Unterbrechung des Wärmetransportfluiddurchsatzes durch den Verbrennungsmotor erzeugen kann und sich eingangs in einer Nichtdurchflussstellung befindet, versehen ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass es Schritte umfasst, bei denen:
    eine für den Wärmezustand einer spezifischen Zone des Verbrennungsmotors, der Ventilbrücke, charakteristische Temperatur durch Anwendung eines ARMA-Modells in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur innerhalb des Verbrennungsmotors, der Drehzahl, der Last und der Menge an in den Verbrennungsmotor eingespritztem Kraftstoff und der Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit bestimmt wird und
    das Mittel (5) zur Abstellung des Durchsatzes in eine Durchflussstellung geschaltet wird, wenn die für den Wärmezustand der Ventilbrücke des Verbrennungsmotors charakteristische Temperatur über einer Grenztemperatur liegt.
