Abstract
A heat pump system for a vehicle utilizes one chiller in which the coolant and the refrigerant are heat-exchanged to heat or cool a battery module. In addition, the heating efficiency is improved by selectively using the external heat and the waste heat of the electrical component and the battery module in the heating mode of the vehicle, wherein the electrical component is mounted on the coolant line connected to on the cooling apparatus of the heat pump system.
