<p>Provided is a vehicle cooling apparatus such that a decrease in cooling performance due to deterioration of air flow distribution with respect to a cooling target portion which is caused by air resistance at the time of increase in vehicle speed in a case where an open/close mechanism is opened can be suppressed. The vehicle cooling apparatus is provided with: a lower outer air introducing portion (71) for guiding outer air introduced via a bumper opening portion (12) fitted at the front of a vehicle (MB) toward a cooling target portion (50); a grill shutter (80) fitted to the lower outer air introducing portion (71) and including an air guide plate (82) supported to be able to change the direction of air blown toward the cooling target portion (50), and an air guide plate actuator (83) for rotating the air guide plate (82), the grill shutter (80) being capable of opening or closing the lower outer air introducing portion (71) and adjusting the air guided direction by the air guide plate (82); and an open/close control unit (90) that controls the driving of the air guide plate actuator (83) such that the angle of the air guide plate (82) can be changed in accordance with a vehicle speed (V) when the grill shutter (80) is opened.</p> |
