Abstract

A self-contained heat exchange system (10) is provided wherein the fan (14), pump (18), radiator (30), and motor (16) are disposed within a cylindrical flow path (40) defined by a resilient housing (12). In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the housing (12) comprises a double walled, generally annular fluid reservoir (46). Accordingly, the inside wall (44) of the housing defines the airflow path (40), thereby maximizing heat exchange efficiency per unit volume of heat exchange fluid. Moreover, the annular character of the fluid tank (12) in conjunction with the disposition of the pump (18) within the airflow path (40) defined by the annulus, ensures that the pump (18) is always in a primed condition.
