Abstract

A duct assembly for a vehicle includes an intake duct having an intake port that opens rearward, a discharge duct having a discharge port that opens downward, and a protrusion. The protrusion protrudes to a position below the discharge port from a position that is forward of the discharge port and overlaps with the discharge port in the width direction of the vehicle. The protrusion has a protruding distal end face. The distance in the front-rear direction from the rear end of the protruding distal end face to the rear end of the discharge port is defined as L. The distance in the vertical direction from the lower end of the object to be cooled to the rear end of the protruding distal end face is defined as H. The value obtained by dividing the distance L by the distance H is less than 3.5.
