Cooling device for internal combustion engine and cooling method of internal combustion engine
A cooling device for an internal combustion engine is provided. The cooling device includes a first passage connected to the internal combustion engine and circulating a coolant, a second passage connected to the internal combustion engine and circulating the coolant, a heat exchanger provided on the first passage and configured such that heat exchange is performed with respect to the coolant, a first pump provided on the first passage, a second pump provided on the second passage and an electronic control unit controlling the first pump and the second pump. The electronic control unit, when a temperature of the coolant is no lower than a predetermined temperature, drives the first pump such that a flow rate of the coolant in the first passage increases as compared to when the temperature of the coolant is lower than the predetermined temperature, and performs first control of stopping the second pump.
1. A cooling device for an internal combustion engine, the cooling device comprising:
a first passage that is connected to the internal combustion engine and that is configured to circulate a coolant;
a second passage that is connected to the internal combustion engine and that is configured to circulate the coolant;
a heat exchanger that is provided on the first passage and that is configured such that heat exchange is performed with respect to the coolant;

an electronic control unit configured to control the first pump and the second pump, wherein
the electronic control unit is configured to, when a temperature of the coolant is no lower than a predetermined temperature, drive the first pump such that a flow rate of the coolant in the first passage increases as compared when the temperature of the coolant is lower than the predetermined temperature, and perform first control of stopping the second pump.
2. The cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to set a rotation speed of the first pump to a maximum rotation speed in the first control.
3. The cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein:
the electronic control unit is configured to, when the internal combustion engine performs a transient operation from a low load to a high load, drive the first pump such that the flow rate of the coolant in the first passage increases as compared to when the transient operation is not performed; and
the electronic control unit is configured to, when the internal combustion engine performs the transient operation from a low load to a high load, perform second control of driving the second pump such that the flow rate of the coolant in the second passage increases.
4. The cooling device according to claim 3 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to, when an amount in increase of an intake air amount of the internal combustion engine is no less than a predetermined amount, perform the second control.
5. The cooling device according to claim 3 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to, when an amount in increase of an accelerator operation amount of the internal combustion engine is no less than a predetermined amount, perform the second control.
6. The cooling device according to claim 3 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to, when the second control continues for a predetermined time or longer, stop the second control.

the first passage and the second passage partially share a passage;
the first pump is provided on an upstream side of the shared passage on the first passage; and
the second pump is provided on the upstream side of the shared passage on the second passage.
8. A cooling method of an internal combustion engine, wherein
a first passage configured to circulate a coolant is connected to the internal combustion engine,
a second passage configured to circulate a coolant is connected to the internal combustion engine,
a heat exchanger configured such that heat exchange is performed with respect to the coolant is provided on the first passage,
