"Linear Feet Per Minute"

I really don't quite understand how to apply that to air flow though,
unless perhaps they mean "at the depth of the heat sink"....

No doubt there's some internal document at Intel detailing how they
measure heat output and apply cooling principles, but their public
manuals are surprisingly sparse (as opposed to say those from Seagate
which are surprisingly detailed and specific).
