Hi Xu:
In general, the square "muffin" fans will be inadequate for cooling large
external anode tubes. The type you want to look for are known as "squirrel
cage" because they have inside, a round blade assembly that looks like those
things that caged hamsters and rats exercise on.
Even with them, I don't think power consumption equates real well to air
movement - best to try to dig up the manufacturers specs, or conduct a test.
I think G3SEK's website and books have some material on how to measure air
flow.
Good luck!
