Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure pertain to an improved heat exchanger unit that includes a frame having a top region, a bottom region, and a plurality of side regions. The unit has a first cooler coupled with the frame proximate to a respective side region and generally parallel to a vertical axis. The unit has a second cooler coupled with the frame proximate to the top region and generally perpendicular to the vertical axis. The unit includes an inner airflow region within the heat exchanger unit, and a first baffle disposed within the inner airflow region.
