Abstract
A radiator unit includes a cooling air duct, a first heat exchanger that is arranged in the cooling air duct and incompletely fills out the cross section of the cooling air duct and a second heat exchanger that fills out at least the part of the cross section not filled out by the first heat exchanger. An air flap arrangement meters a cooling air flow through the heat exchangers. A first part of the air flap arrangement predominantly fluidically overlaps the first heat exchanger. A second part of the air flap arrangement predominantly fluidically overlaps the part of the cross section not filled out by the first heat exchanger. The air flaps of the first and second part are coupled for swiveling in opposite directions around axes that are parallel to a boundary between the two parts.
