Abstract

A cooling system includes a first cooling passage in which a first cooling object is cooled by first coolant, a flow passage that supplies the first coolant to a second cooling object from the first cooling passage, a flow rate regulation mechanism that regulates a flow rate of the first coolant flowing in the first cooling passage, and a controller that controls the flow rate regulation mechanism. The controller controls the flow rate regulation mechanism so that the flow rate of the first coolant flowing in the first cooling passage is lower when temperature of the first cooling object is lower than temperature of the first coolant, than the flow rate when the temperature of the first cooling object is equal to or higher than the temperature of the first coolant.
