In a thermal management system for a battery electric vehicle, a controller is configured to, in a heating mode, control a switching valve to select a first valve position when a power supply temperature is higher than a predetermined power supply temperature threshold, and control the switching valve to select a second valve position when the power supply temperature is equal to or lower than the power supply temperature threshold. The controller is configured to switch the switching valve from the first valve position to the second valve position regardless of the power supply temperature, when a temperature of a heat medium that has passed through a power supply cooler is lower than an outside air temperature by a predetermined margin temperature difference or more while the switching valve is in the first valve position.

When heating is performed by using heat obtained by the refrigeration cycle, the adjusting valve is controlled to a first state where the heat medium flows into the heater core from the inter-media heat exchanger, and when heating is performed by using heat obtained by an internal combustion engine, the adjusting valve is controlled to a second state where the heat medium flows into the heater core from the engine heat circuit.

A vehicle air-conditioning apparatus is provided which is capable of expanding an effective range of a dehumidifying and heating mode to achieve comfortable vehicle interior air conditioning. A control device (controller) executes a dehumidifying and heating mode to let a refrigerant discharged from a compressor 2 radiate heat in a radiator 4, let a part of the refrigerant flow from a bypass circuit (refrigerant pipe 13F) to an indoor expansion valve 8, and let the residual refrigerant flow through an outdoor expansion valve 6. In the dehumidifying and heating mode, the control device has a state of controlling the operation of the compressor 2, based on a heat absorber temperature Te and executes a radiator temperature priority mode which enlarges a capability of the compressor when heat radiation in the radiator is insufficient.

An air conditioner is configured to be switchable between a heating mode and a cooling mode. In the cooling mode, a high-temperature heat medium circulates between a high-pressure side refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger and a high-temperature heat medium-outside air heat exchanger in a state where a refrigerant circulates in an air-cooling heat exchanger. In the heating mode, the high-temperature heat medium circulates between the high-pressure side refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger and an air-heating heat exchanger, while a low-temperature heat medium circulates between a low-pressure side refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger and a low-temperature heat medium-outside air heat exchanger, in a state where the refrigerant circulates in the low-pressure side refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger.
