Abstract
An apparatus for cooling an intercooler of a motor vehicle, which is located adjacent to a negative boundary pressure area of the vehicle, comprising an electrically driven fan which introduces cold air to the intercooler, a sensor for sensing the speed of the vehicle, and a unit for controlling the fan in response to the speed of the vehicle. The fan is rotated in a direction in which the outside air can be introduced into the vehicle only when the vehicle speed is lower than a predetermined value.
