First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A cooling system for a vehicle, comprising: a condenser having a first inlet header, a first outlet header, and a plurality of first tubes connecting between the first inlet header and the first outlet header; a radiator having a second inlet header, a second outlet header, and a plurality of second tubes connecting between the second inlet header and the second outlet header; an auxiliary chamber disposed within the second outlet header; and a fan assembly disposed in front of or behind the condenser and the radiator, and having at least one cooling fan, wherein the condenser and the radiator are arranged side by side on the front of the vehicle, wherein the first inlet header having an inlet port and is disposed above the first outlet header having an outlet port; wherein the auxiliary chamber fluidly communicates with the first outlet header. 2. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein an edge of the condenser is disposed adjacent to an edge of the radiator. 3. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein the condenser and the radiator are arranged side by side along a width direction of the vehicle. 4. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein the second inlet header is disposed above the second outlet header. 5. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein the condenser and the radiator are arranged side by side along a height direction of the vehicle. 6. The cooling system according to claim 5 , further comprising: a first support member and a second support member supporting the condenser, the radiator, and the fan assembly. 7. The cooling system according to claim 6 , wherein the first inlet header of the condenser and the second inlet header of the radiator are supported by the first support member, and the first outlet header of the condenser and the second outlet header of the radiator are supported by the second support member. 8. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein the condenser and the radiator are arranged to be inclined in a symmetrical manner. 9. The cooling system according to claim 5 , wherein the condenser and the radiator are disposed in parallel to the height direction of the vehicle. 10. The cooling system according to claim 1 , wherein the condenser and the radiator are inclined to the height direction of the vehicle at a predetermined angle. 11. A vehicle having a cooling system according to claim 1 .
