The heat management system enables efficient heat management of electric components and a battery in a vehicle as well as cooling and heating of the vehicle.

A heat management system including a refrigerant circulation line including a compressor, a water-cooling condenser, an air-cooling condenser, a first expansion valve, an evaporator, a refrigerant heat exchanger, and a gas/liquid separator that discharges only a liquid refrigerant, and cooling an indoor place by circulating a refrigerant; a heating line for heating the indoor place by circulating, through the water-cooling condenser, cooling water that exchanges heat with the refrigerant; and a cooling line for cooling a battery and an electrical component by circulating air or cooling water that exchanges heat with the refrigerant. Therefore, the present invention can not only cool and heat a vehicle but also efficiently manage heat for an electrical component and a battery in a vehicle, and can reduce the number of constituent components for heating and cooling.

A heat exchange system for a vehicle includes a refrigerant circulation loop for circulating a refrigerant, a compressor, a condenser, a first expansion valve, a second expansion valve, a first chiller and a second chiller. The first expansion valve and the first chiller form a group and the second expansion valve and the second chiller form another group. The two groups are arranged in parallel; a first coolant circulation loop comprising a first cooler, and circulating coolant which exchanges heat with the refrigerant via the first chiller; a second coolant circulation loop includes a second cooler, and circulating coolant which exchanges heat with the refrigerant via the second chiller. The first expansion valve and the second expansion valve are controlled so that the refrigerant passing through the first chiller during a cooling mode has a higher pressure, temperature, and rate of discharge than the refrigerant passing through the second chiller.
