Abstract

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a blower module assembly may include a housing, a blower mechanically coupled to the housing, and an airflow guide mechanically coupled between the housing and the blower. The blower may be mechanically coupled to the housing, may have an intake and an exhaust, and may be configured to move air from the intake to the exhaust. The airflow guide may be mechanically coupled between the housing and the blower, may have a solid region and a plenum region such that the border between the solid region and the plenum region is defined by a portion of an arcuate cylinder. The housing, the blower, and the airflow guide may be arranged such that a plenum is defined by surfaces of the housing, the blower, and the portion of the arcuate cylinder, the plenum adjacent to the intake.
