Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013038222A1] The invention relates to a shroud (11) which is intended to be mounted between a radiator (4) and a fan (10) of an internal combustion engine arrangement. The shroud (11) has a peripheral wall comprising: - a first end (12) having a first cross section designed to match the shape of a fixing surface connected to the radiator (4); - a second end (13) having a second cross section designed to match the shape of a fixing surface connected to the fan (10). Furthermore, the peripheral wall of the shroud (11) is made of flexible material and is designed to be tensioned, at least in operation, so as to form a substantially smooth peripheral guiding surface for an air flow.
