Abstract
A heat exchange system for a vehicle includes: a first cooling circuit (L-, L-) is configured to cool an internal combustion engine a second cooling circuit (L-, L-) is configured to cool a driving electric motor outputs a driving force; a first heat exchanger () is configured to exchange heat between the first cooling circuit and the second cooling circuit; a first sensor () is configured to detect a temperature of the first cooling circuit; a second sensor () is configured to detect a temperature of the second cooling circuit; and a controller () is configured to execute control of performing heat exchange between a coolant in the first cooling circuit and a coolant in the second cooling circuit using the first heat exchanger when the temperature detected by the first sensor is lower than the temperature detected by the second sensor.
