Patent attributes
A heat exchanger package for a motor vehicle includes a radiator and charge air cooler, each having a length between opposite ends and including front and rear opposite faces through which air flows. Each has an overlapping fluid-cooling portion at one end, wherein the rear face at one end of the radiator is disposed adjacent the front face at one end of the charge air cooler, such that the air flows sequentially in series through the overlapping portions of each. Each further has a non-overlapping fluid-cooling portion at the opposite end wherein the rear face at the opposite end of the radiator extends outward of the charge air cooler and the front face at the opposite end of the charge air cooler extends outward of the radiator, such that the air flows singularly and in parallel through each of the non-overlapping portions.
