@cloudnyn3 I don't know if you know this, so forgive me if you do, but in your first paragraph you said that technically air is a gas. This is true, but if you were trying to clarify to me that it is not a fluid then that is not the case. A fluid is defined as "anything that flows", which gases do just as much as any liquid.

In your statement above, you are confusing coolant and cooling, which would not answer the question correctly. | |
