Abstract
A server assembly includes a server, a number of first air ducts, and a number of second air ducts. A number of intakes and outlets are defined in a top of a chassis of the server. Each of the first and second ducts includes a hollow main body, and a connecting portion extending from a bottom of the main body. A first opening is defined in an end of the main body of each of the first and second ducts. A second opening is defined in each of the connecting portions of each of the first and second ducts. Outside air flows through the first air ducts, thereby flowing into the chassis to be heated, thereby cooling the server. The heated air is expelled out of the chassis through the second air ducts.
