A cooling apparatus includes: a water circuit; a ventilation heat exchanger that heats cooling water by heat exchange with air discharged to outside; a motor generator cooling unit; a motor bypass circuit that bypasses the motor generator cooling unit; and a flow rate control unit. When a temperature of the cooling water flowing between the ventilation heat exchanger and a motor flow rate controller is lower than or equal to a temperature of oil circulating inside the motor generator, the flow rate control unit increases a flow rate of the cooling water that flows from the ventilation heat exchanger into the motor bypass circuit.

Coolant control valve with thermoelectric generator

A coolant control valve (CCV) includes an outer housing, an actuator, a valve body, and one or more thermoelectric generators (TEGs). The outer housing includes at least one inlet and at least one outlet. The TEG is operatively connected to the actuator and can be a lone source of power to the CCV or assist a primary power source. The CCV can utilize a power management device that can receive power input from either the TEG or the primary power source. The TEG has a first surface and a second surface, either of which can be exposed to air or a cooling system fluid or coolant; the coolant can be water, ethylene glycol, a combination thereof, or any other fluid that is utilized in a system that provides temperature management for a component or system.
