Two types of flow device, honeycomb and cone, with various sizes are tested. During each test, the flow device is assembled between the cooling fan and heatsink, and the equivalent thermal resistance is assessed and compared with the original configuration. Also, a flow visualization technique is employed in the observation of the flow patterns in between the fins of the heatsink for each configuration. The results show that with a honeycomb, the vortices beneath the hub of the fan can be effectively reduced, and the flow patterns in between the fins are approaching an ideal impinge jet. However, there is only slight difference in thermal resistance with and without the flow devices, which means the flow patt
