DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ENHANCING AIR COOLING OF ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

摘要

The disclosed concept includes a cooling device and method for enhancing cooling in an electrical or mechanical system. The system includes air therein for cooling the system. The cooling device includes a flexible elongated member having an inner core and an outer cover. The inner core is constructed of a batting material and the outer cover is constructed of a cloth material. The outer cover is at least partially sealed such that the inner core is contained within the outer cover. The flexible elongated member is positioned within a particular portion of the electrical or mechanical system and is utilized to form at least one air seal such that air is diverted away from an unintended path and toward an intended path for use in enhancing the cooling of an area wherein cooling is needed.
