Abstract
A thermal management system for a vehicle includes a cooling apparatus for circulating a coolant in a coolant line to cool at least one electrical component provided in the coolant line, a battery cooling apparatus for circulating the coolant to the battery module, a chiller for heat exchanging the coolant with a refrigerant to control a temperature of the coolant, a heater that heats an interior of the vehicle using the coolant, and a branch line. A condenser included in the air conditioner is connected to the coolant line so as to pass the coolant circulating through the cooling apparatus.
