Chiron Fan Duct v3 - improved side flow

thingiverse

(UPDATED thoughts as of March 28, 2023: I'm pretty sure I'm having cooling issues. Not sure if my diverter is blocking too much flow, or if the stock fan just can't keep up with the 0.8 nozzle I've got installed. But I see that the original has been updated, and I see a lot of other designs that I'm currently looking at for my personal use, so I just wanted to let people know that my variant is not currently meeting my needs, so you may want to try others...) I love the Fan Duct V3 - it prints easy with pretty minimal supports and is actually easier to install than I expected. It improved my bridging and upward slopes. But it occurred to me that a lot of the air was probably coming straight out instead of swirling around the arms, so I finagled a diverter into the central stream to split the airflow down both sides. Quick tests suggest it works, but only time and use will tell for sure. I'm also sure this can be done better with normal CAD or other modeling tools. I just wedged something simple in quickly with OpenSCAD because that's what I'm fastest with.
