Original Abstract Submitted
The thermal management circuit includes a battery circuit (low-temperature circuit) (apparatus arrangement circuit) through which a heat medium that is heat-exchanged with a battery (eAxel) (temperature adjustment target apparatus) circulates, a refrigeration cycle connected to the chiller and the water-cooled capacitor, a heat exchange device that performs heat exchange between the outside air and the heat medium, and a switching device. The heat exchanger device includes a LT radiator (first heat exchanger), a HT radiator (second heat exchanger), and a supercooling capacitor (third heat exchanger), which are provided separately from each other. The connection state between each of LT radiator, HT radiator, and the supercooling capacitor and each of the of the battery circuit (low-temperature circuit) and the refrigeration cycle is switched by a switching device.
