A combined cooling and water braking system for a vehicle, and a method for cooling a propulsion device of a vehicle and water braking a pair of wheels of a vehicle

[0072] figure 1 Shown is a combined cooling and water braking system comprising at least one exemplary embodiment of the present invention ( figure 1 Not shown in the vehicle 1. Although the vehicle 1 is shown in the form of a truck, other types of vehicles may be provided according to the invention, such as buses, construction equipment or passenger cars.

[0073] The truck (vehicle 1 ) comprises a cab 2 in which the driver can operate the vehicle 1 . The vehicle 1 comprises a plurality of road wheels 4, here shown as two pairs of wheels, however in other embodiments there may be a different number of wheels, such as three, four or more pairs of wheels. Vehicles can have propulsion ( figure 1 not shown), the propulsion device is configured to generate propulsion power for the vehicle. The propulsion means may be, for example, an internal combustion engine, a battery powered electric motor, or a fuel cell powered motor.
