<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cooling apparatus that can stably cools a heat generating source and reduce the pressure loss. <P>SOLUTION: The cooling apparatus 1 that cools HV equipment 31 includes: a compressor 12 that circulates refrigerant; a condenser 14 that condenses the refrigerant; a gas-liquid separator 40 that stores the refrigerant in liquid form that is condensed by the condenser 14; an expansion valve 16 that reduces a pressure of the refrigerant; an evaporator 18 that vaporizes the refrigerant that is reduced in pressure by the expansion valve 16; a first passage (refrigerant passage 23) and a second passage (refrigerant passages 34, 36, and cooling passage 32) through which the refrigerant flows from the gas-liquid separator 40 toward the expansion valve 16, and which are provided in parallel; and a cooling portion 30 that is provided on the second passage and cools the HV equipment 31 using the refrigerant. The refrigerant in liquid form flows through the second passage from the gas-liquid separator 40. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
