Smoke machine... You could say that. I used to be a smoker. I used the "lit cigarette airflow test" methodYou check it with a glass case side and a smoke machine or something? Airflow tends to be hard to see.
I had a temperature probe sitting right under the intake-repurposed-to-exhaust vent. Turn computer on. Room temp and had airflow. Watched the temperature climb and the airflow decrease. Eventually the airflow stopped and the temperature dropped.
I was actually quite taken aback. I would not have believed it had I not seen it with my own eyes.
