1. A temperature control apparatus for an in-vehicle electric storage device, which supplies air from a vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device based on a temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device, comprising:
- a controller that sets a supply air volume, which is a volume of air that is supplied from the vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device, based on a degree of introduction of external air into the vehicle compartment; and
an air blower that supplies the in-vehicle electric storage device with the air in the supply air volume that is set by the controller.

Abstract
A temperature control apparatus for an in-vehicle electric storage device supplies air from a vehicle compartment to a secondary battery based on the temperature of the secondary battery. The fan air volume, which is the volume of air that is supplied from the vehicle compartment to the secondary battery, is set based on the degree of introduction of external air into the vehicle compartment.

21. A temperature control apparatus for an in-vehicle electric storage device, which supplies air from a vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device based on a temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device, comprising:
-
a controller that sets a supply air volume, which is a volume of air that is supplied from the vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device, to a smaller value as the temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device decreases, when the temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device is lower than a normal temperature reference value, which is used to determine whether a charge-discharge performance of the in-vehicle electric storage device is maintained at a charge-discharge performance required to drive a vehicle; and an air blower that supplies the in-vehicle electric storage device with the air in the supply air volume that is set by the controller.

22. A temperature control apparatus for an in-vehicle electric storage device, which supplies air from a vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device based on a temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device, comprising:
-
a controller that sets a supply air volume, which is a volume of air that is supplied from the vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device, to a smaller value as a difference between the temperature of the in-vehicle electric storage device and a temperature in the vehicle compartment increases, when the difference is smaller than a reference temperature difference, which is used to determine whether there is a high possibility that an air supply from the vehicle compartment to the in-vehicle electric storage device causes condensation in the in-vehicle electric storage device; and an air blower that supplies the in-vehicle electric storage device with the air in the supply air volume that is set by the controller.
