Abstract

An integrated heat management system for a vehicle includes a refrigerant circulation line configured to cool or heat a passenger compartment while operating in an air conditioner mode or a heat pump mode according to a flow direction of a refrigerant, an electric component module side cooling water circulation line configured to circulate the cooling water through the electric component module to cool the electric component module, a water-cooled outdoor heat exchanger configured to allow the refrigerant circulating through the refrigerant circulation line to exchange heat with the cooling water circulating through the electric component module side cooling water circulation line, and a cooling water flow control unit configured to control a cooling water flow in the electric component module side cooling water circulation line.
