Abstract
Method and apparatus includes a chassis to house circuitry, the chassis having first and second surfaces and an air inlet. An airflow moving device may create an airflow in a first direction that is communicated to the chassis via the air inlet. A wall structure may have a height that extends up from a base of the wall structure in a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction of the airflow, where the base of the wall structure directly contacts the first surface and forms an elongated opening along a top surface of the wall structure and in between the second surface of the chassis. The airflow may flow over the top surface of the wall structure.
