desk fan
Small cooling device
A desk fan is a small portable electric fan designed to sit on a desk or table, providing personal cooling in a workspace.
Unlike ceiling fans or standing fans, desk fans are compact enough to direct airflow at a single person: I keep a desk fan running all summer because my office has no air conditioning.
