20180100425 · 2018-04-12 · ·

The present disclosure relates to a cross fan engine room blower for a vehicle, the cross fan engine room blower including: a plurality of cross fans that are horizontally arranged in an air flow space, that have an impeller-shaped rotating blade formed along a full length of the cross fans, and that rotate to draw outside air into the engine room. Such a cross fan engine room blower may maximize an air flow rate in the engine room and reduce the possibility of foreign materials being introduced between the cross fans and a fan shroud, thereby reducing the possibility of a motor stalling or otherwise performing undesirably. Such a cross fan engine room blower may also improve an air flow quality by minimizing a dead zone of the air flow space to thereby reduce power consumption of a motor, thereby improving fuel efficiency.
