Abstract
A cooling apparatus includes: a radiator promoting heat radiation of cooling water of an engine; a first flow path circulating the cooling water discharged from the engine through the radiator to the engine; a second flow path circulating the cooling water discharged from the engine to the engine without through the radiator; a thermostat attached in a junction of the first and second flow paths, closing the first flow path when a temperature of the cooling water in the second flow path is lower than a threshold value, and opening the first flow path when the temperature of the cooling water in the second flow path is equal to or higher than the threshold value; and a third flow path communicating a part, of the first flow path between the engine and the radiator, with a part, of the first flow path between the radiator and the thermostat.
