Cooling Shroud; Removing The Cooling Shroud - Dell PowerEdge R630 Owner's Manual

Cooling shroud

The cooling shroud has aerodynamically placed openings that direct the airflow across the entire system.
The airflow passes through all the critical parts of the system, where the vacuum pulls air across the
entire surface area of the heat sink, thus allowing increased cooling.
