Abstract

A thermal management device for a vehicle includes heat medium circuits, a reserve tank, and a connector. The heat medium circulates through the heat medium circuits separately. The reserve tank is configured to separate an air bubble contained in the heat medium from the heat medium. The connector allows the reserve tank to come in communication with the heat medium circuits selectively. As such, an occurrence of the heat loss in the degassing performed in the reserve tank can be suppressed with the thermal management device for a vehicle including the heat medium circuits.
