Imagine a tube with fans at each end and compare this to the same tube but with the fans at the same end.
In the first case
If I was very hot and had two room fans, I would probably favor having two run in parallel (next to each other) rather than run them in series.
In the first case
- Series: air passes the first fan and then the second (after traversing the case)
- Parallel: the fans don't double process the air (they are side-by-side not stacked)
