Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for transferring heat from a coolant to a water injection system reservoir coupled to an engine of a vehicle. The water injection system reservoir may include a first reservoir fluidically coupled to a second reservoir, where the first reservoir is vertically higher than the second reservoir. The coolant may absorb waste heat from the engine, or from a hybrid electric vehicle power electronics system, and transfer heat to the water reservoir to prevent water from freezing even when ambient temperature is at or below the freezing temperature of water.
