<p>A thermostat assembly includes first and second chambers 110, 111 separated by a thermally conductive dividing wall 115. A temperature responsive valve assembly 220 is located in the second chamber to control the flow from an inlet 117 to an outlet. The temperature responsive valve assembly 220 includes a temperature responsive actuator 222 thermally connected to the dividing wall 115 so that its operation is based not only on the temperature of the coolant in the second chamber 111 but also on the temperature of the coolant in the first chamber 110.</p> |
