A cooling device includes a first cooling medium circuit for circulating a cooling medium that passes through a main body of an engine to a first heat exchanger, a second cooling medium circuit for circulating a cooling medium that passes through the main body to a second heat exchanger, a control valve that is commonly used in the first and second cooling medium circuits, and a control device. The control valve includes a rotatable rotor, and is configured such that a rotation range of the rotor includes a water stop section in which the circuits are both closed. The control device restricts output power of the engine in a period in which the rotation angle is in the water stop section, when the rotor rotates via the water stop section at an operating time of the control valve.

1. A cooling device for an internal combustion engine, comprising: a first cooling medium circuit for returning a cooling medium that passes through a main body of the internal combustion engine to the main body after causing the cooling medium to flow through a first heat exchanger;a second cooling medium circuit for returning the cooling medium that passes through the main body to the main body after causing the cooling medium to flow through a second heat exchanger;a control valve that is rotatable and commonly used in the first cooling medium circuit and the second cooling medium circuit, and is configured to control changes of opening and closing degrees of the first cooling medium circuit and the second cooling medium circuit respectively in response to a rotation angle of the control valve from a reference angle position, in which a water stop section exists in a rotation range of the control valve due to the structure of the control valve in which no cooling medium flows through the first cooling medium circuit and the second cooling medium circuit in a cooling period of the internal combustion engine during an operation of the control valve; anda control device that is configured to control the operation of the control valve in accordance with a request to the internal combustion engine, and the control device restricts output power of the internal combustion engine to avoided boiling of the cooling medium due to increasing of the heat generation amount of the internal combustion engine, when the control valve rotates through the water stop section during the operation of the control valve. 2. The cooling device for an internal combustion engine according to claim 1, wherein the second heat exchanger includes a heater core of an air-conditioner,the control valve is configured so that a rotation angle corresponding to the water stop section is interposed, if the control valve is operated from a rotation angle corresponding to a first mode in which the second cooling medium circuit is opened, to a rotation angle corresponding to a second mode in which the first cooling medium circuit is opened and the second cooling medium circuit is closed, andthe control device is configured to operate the control valve to the rotation angle corresponding to the first mode if a request to cause the cooling medium to flow through the heater core is present, and operate the control valve to the rotation angle corresponding to the second mode if the request to cause the cooling medium to flow through the heater core is absent. 3. The cooling device for an internal combustion engine according to claim 1, wherein the control device is configured to control an engine speed and an engine load of the internal combustion engine so that the output power of the internal combustion engine in the period in which the rotation angle of the control valve is in the water stop section does not exceed a predetermined value.
