A light source unit is provided that is adapted for efficient cooling and for illumination of high luminance, and a projector including the same. A light source unit including a solid-state light source and a lens further includes a first fluid flowing in the vicinity of the solid-state light source thereby absorbing heat generated from the solid-state light source, and a second fluid flowing in the vicinity of the first fluid thereby absorbing the heat contained in the first fluid.
