A fan sink that includes a dual impeller push-pull axial fan and a heat sink to cool a hot electronic device is presented. The axial fan has a hub motor, a first impeller that is radially proximate to the hub motor, and a second impeller that is radially distal to the hub motor, wherein the first im
A fan sink that includes a dual impeller push-pull axial fan and a heat sink to cool a hot electronic device is presented. The axial fan has a hub motor, a first impeller that is radially proximate to the hub motor, and a second impeller that is radially distal to the hub motor, wherein the first impeller pushes air in a first direction and the second impeller pulls air in a second direction. The heat sink is oriented between the axial fan and the hot electronic device such that the hot electronic device, the heat sink, and the axial fan are axially oriented, wherein cool air is forced onto the heat sink by one impeller in the axial fan, and wherein heated air from the heat sink is removed by an other impeller in the axial fan.

What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: mounting a heat sink between a heat generating unit and an axial fan, wherein the axial fan is composed of: a hub, a first impeller that is radially proximate to the hub, and a second impeller that is radially distal to the hub, wherein the first impeller
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: mounting a heat sink between a heat generating unit and an axial fan, wherein the axial fan is composed of: a hub, a first impeller that is radially proximate to the hub, and a second impeller that is radially distal to the hub, wherein the first impeller pushes air in a first direction and the second impeller pulls air in a second direction, wherein the heat generating unit, the heat sink, and the axial fan are axially oriented, and wherein cool air is forced onto the heat sink by one impeller in the axial fan, and wherein heated air from the heat sink is removed by an other impeller in the axial fan, and wherein a top surface of the heat sink has a concave surface that aids a direction of airflow direction between the first and second impellers, wherein the axial fan is mounted to the heat sink without any ductwork surrounding the axial fan, and wherein ambient air flows freely through the second impeller from an interior of a housing that holds the heat generating unit, and wherein the first impeller has only large fan blades, and wherein the second impeller has only small fan blades, and wherein the large fan blades are larger than the small fan blades, and wherein the first impeller has fewer large fan blades compared to a quantity of small fan blades in the second impeller; a first interior duct that is aligned axially with the first impeller to bring the cool air in from outside a housing of the system; and a second interior duct that circumscribes the first interior duct, wherein the second interior duct is aligned axially with the second impeller to exhaust hot air outside the housing of the system, wherein the first and second impellers are only supported by the hub, and wherein rotational force to the first and second impellers is supplied by a separate mechanical means. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the heat generating unit is an electronic component in a computer. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the heat sink further comprises: a plurality of fins, wherein air moving from the first impeller towards the second impeller moves across the fins.
