Abstract
A computing system includes a chassis having an airflow entrance and an airflow exhaust, a duct structure disposed in the chassis, and a redirection mechanism located on a wall of the duct structure and extending through a cutout in the wall of the duct structure. In the computing system, the duct structure has a first end facing the airflow entrance and a second end facing the airflow exhaust. The redirection mechanism has a deflector having an inlet airfoil extending away from the duct structure towards the airflow entrance and at least one exhaust airfoil extending into the duct structure.
