As to the cooling effectiveness of the vertical solution, it seems that it shouldn't be as effective per unit noise as a solution which is thin (air moves through wide area but thin distance). After all, a longer travel through the resistance should be more restrictive and it should be picking up less heat as it stays in contact with the radiator. That's my off the navel theory.

Yes?
Agree with you on the tape but lost you on the second part of the thermal dynamics
