ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for forcibly cooling selected components of a vehicle includes a heat exchanger separate from the engine, a pump for circulating the engine oil and engine coolant between the engine and the heat exchanger at a predetermined flow rate, and a variable valve for controlling the flow rate between the engine and heat exchanger. A blower forces and directs air at the components. A controller connected to a thermocouple controls the operation of the blower, pump and a variable valve. The components are cooled in a controlled manner.
