Abstract
A vehicular coolant flow system includes: a main cooling circuit configured to circulate a coolant through a power electronic device mounted on a vehicle so as to cool the power electronic device; a heat-radiating device provided in the main cooling circuit so as to cool the coolant; a bypass circuit that branches off at a point between the power electronic device of the main cooling circuit and the heat-radiating device, bypasses the heat-radiating device, and merges with the main cooling circuit; a heating device connected to the bypass circuit and heated by the coolant that has cooled the power electronic device; a first adjustment valve positioned at a point at which the bypass circuit branches off from the main cooling circuit or merges with the main cooling circuit; and a controller that controls the first adjustment valve so as to adjust a flow rate of the coolant supplied to the bypass circuit.
