Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An engine cooling system may include a housing forming an enclosed duct having an air intake opening, at least one heat exchanger positioned within the duct such that ambient air entering the air intake opening contacts the at least one heat exchanger, at least one radiator circulating coolant for the engine, at least one radiator positioned in the duct such that ambient air entering the air intake opening contacts at least one radiator, and the duct configured to include an exhaust opening positioned downstream of the at least one heat exchanger and the at least one radiator, such that ambient air flows in the air intake opening, through the duct to contact the heat exchanger and the radiator, and exits the duct through the exhaust opening.
