Patent ID: 8291721

Claim:
A transport refrigeration system having a structural framework for supporting a refrigeration unit including a condenser heat exchanger, an evaporator housing, and a pair of condenser fan assemblies supported in an upper region of the framework and an engine and an electric generator powered by the engine supported by the framework in an engine compartment in a lower region of the framework, comprising: each of said pair of condenser fan assemblies comprises a motor and an impeller, the pair of condenser fan assemblies configured for directing ambient air flow from the condenser heat exchanger into the structural framework, the pair of condenser fan assemblies being positioned in a side by side relationship horizontally along a width of the structural framework and located above the engine compartment, the pair of condenser fan assemblies being disposed aft of the condenser heat exchanger and forward of an evaporator housing; a flow partition configured for separating the ambient air flow from each condenser fan assembly of the pair of condenser fan assemblies and communicating the separated ambient air flow into the engine compartment in the lower region, the flow partition extending longitudinally along a length of the upper region and extending transversely from between each of said condenser fan assembly impellers to a surface of the evaporator housing.
