From the control point of view, the servo motor on 3-way valve has an I behavior.
The dashed feedback is recommended for a stable control with P behavior.
The 3-way valve is controlled so that the path B-AB is opened when the coolant is cold. The
coolant is led past the heat exchanger and the heat sink is heated by the switching losses of
the power semiconductors. When the coolant inlet temperature T
three-step controller opens the 3-way valve and the path A-AB.
