Patent number: 9448194Abstract: An apparatus for determining a failure in a thermostat for controlling the flow of a coolant into a radiator in response to an actual water temperature of the coolant for an engine in a vehicle includes: a water temperature detector that detects the actual water temperature; a water temperature estimator that calculates an estimated water temperature of the coolant; and a failure determining unit that compares the actual water temperature detected by the water temperature detector with the estimated water temperature calculated by the water temperature estimator under cold start of the engine and determines whether the thermostat is valve-open failure. In an engine nonoperating mode including at least automatic stop of the engine, the water temperature estimator applies a behavior of the actual water temperature to an estimated water temperature calculated immediately before automatic stop of the engine to calculate an estimated water temperature in the engine nonoperating mode.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2013Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: MITSUBISHI JIDOSHA KOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Katsuhiro Furuta, Kenji Saito, Hitoshi Kamura
