Abstract
A cooling system for a vehicle is provided. The system includes a valve that is disposed at a predetermined position in a cooling channel to discharge bubbles produced in a coolant out of the cooling channel. Additionally, a controller is configured to detect whether bubbles have been produced in the coolant using a rate of pressure change based on a temperature increase in the cooling channel and open the valve in response to detecting that bubbles have been produced.
