A transport refrigeration unit for use with a transport trailer includes a structural framework mountable to a wall of the transport trailer, a condenser heat exchanger unit mounted to the structural framework, an evaporator housing separated from the condenser heat exchanger by a distance, and at least one condenser fan assembly positioned aft of the condenser heat exchanger unit and forward of the evaporator housing. The at least one condenser fan assembly includes a fan rotor defining an inlet end. The fan rotor is rotatable about a fan axis. A casing defines a central opening and the fan rotor is arranged within the central opening. The casing includes a plurality of openings spaced about a periphery of the casing. A portion of an airflow moving through the at least one condenser fan assembly is expelled from the at least one condenser fan assembly radially via the plurality of openings.
