Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3438725
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cooling device for vehicle which cools a plurality of radiators without using large volume of water.
SOLUTION: The cooling device for vehicle has a fuel cell radiator 11 cooling an on-vehicle fuel cell 1 by circularly supplying cooling water, and a humidifying water condensing radiator 19, cooling a humidifying water collecting condenser 5, condensing and collecting the water for humidifying the fuel cell 1 from the exhaust gas of the fuel cell 1. When a cooling water temperature sensor 41 detects that the temperature of the cooling water in the fuel cell 1 exceeds a prescribed temperature, or when a liquid volume sensor 43 installed in a water tank 9 detects that a volume of the water for humidification is less then a prescribed volume, and a humidify sensor 47 arranged at the back side of respective radiators 11, 19 detects a humidity less than a prescribed humidity, a control device 45 outputs driving signal to a pump 37 and a distributor 33, and the radiator 11 or the radiator 19 is cooled by spraying water from a nozzle 27 or a nozzle 29.
