For Air Cooling we have terms and definitions in 3 topics. The topics are Import Cars, Metal and Technology.

Air Cooling (Import Cars)

Simple method of engine cooling that relies on forced airflow over extended metal fins on the cylinder head and the block to maintain proper operating temperature.

Air Cooling (Metal)

Cooling of the heated metal, intermediate in rapidity between slow furnace cooling and quenching, in which the metal is permitted to stand in the open air.

Air Cooling (Technology)

This refers to cooling that involved a heatsink and/or fan. Even though a metal heatsink may make contact with the microprocessor package (or whatever is being cooled), the heatsink ultimately exchanges the heat with air, whether a fan is used or not. Contrast this with water cooling. Air cooling is less efficient than water cooling.
