Abstract
A heater core for exchanging heat between a coolant and ventilation air to be blown into a vehicle interior is disposed in a high-pressure side heat-medium circulation circuit that allows for circulation of the coolant heated by a heat pump cycle. A radiator for exchanging heat between at least a part of the coolant flowing out of the heater core and a low-pressure refrigerant in the heat pump cycle is disposed in a low-pressure side heat-medium circulation circuit coupled to the high-pressure side heat-medium circulation circuit. Thus, excessive heat included in the coolant flowing out of the heater core and which is not used to heat the ventilation air can suppress frost formation on an exterior heat exchanger and can also defrost the exterior heat exchanger.
