ABSTRACT:
A hood for closing an engine compartment of an automotive vehicle having at least one component in the compartment which it desired to subject to a flow of cooling air. The hood has an inner panel and an outer panel. The inner panel is shaped to form a channel. The outer panel overlies the channel to form a duct. The duct has an air inlet and an air outlet downstream from the air inlet. During forward motion of the vehicle, air will enter the air inlet and flow through the duct, exiting at the air outlet to subject the component to a flow of cooling air.
