Yes, passive would be best. Perforation would just improve the surface area, of course. As lolito_fr shows in the post after you, bill, adding fins would be even better. However, fins would be hard to deal with all over unless some handles were added.

I have no idea what the C/W vs LPM of a single panel would be in air when there is no fan. You can't say that the air is un-moving, of course, so I have no idea (as you note) how to reliably test something like this. Do you test it in a chamber? If so, how do you keep air movement to a minimum? What is the testing goal? Do you test it in a room? Under a desk? How close do you allow items to each side?

lolito_fr, where is that case from?
