Does anyone know what to call this sort of fan optimization or have any reading material on how it works or how to design them? - eviltoast

I’m trying to find out what purpose this type of design serves and how they are designed but have hit a wall with knowing what to even look for.

This piece of the voron stealthburner is the only example I can think of off the top of my head but I have seen them before in some sort of fan duct or funnel thing.
