Before selling my KPA100 and KAT100, I used my K2 in RTTY contests. I
stuck an old computer brushless DC muffin fan down over the warmest part
with a little square of velcro, blowing down. I could run 100W
[generally didn't but could] and the heat sink stayed almost cool. I
don't think you have to move very much air over it to keep it cool.

Take a look at the K2 Auxiliary KPA100 Cooling Fan
Yes. And almost any generic muffin fan will push some air across a heat
sink or into a power amp to improve air flow. I have a couple of 12V
vans with power poles on them that I deploy as needed.
