1. A method for an engine, comprising:
pumping coolant from a coolant reservoir to an exhaust component and then to a heater core, the coolant heated by the exhaust component; and during engine warm-up conditions, adjusting a flow rate of coolant into the heater core based on a temperature drop across the heater core and a commanded flow rate of coolant into the heater core to maximize heat transfer to a vehicle cabin. |
