The effects of hot air recirculation drastically reduce cooling but
those effects can be reduced by using air dams (Figure 6).

Recommended minimum clearances if no back ventilation is possible
are very important (Figure 7) but are not adequate for 100%
operational capacity (see section 5.0 Testing Ventilation).
Enclosure sizes (Figure 8) should meet minimum requirements for
optimum operation (see section 5.0 Testing Ventilation).
