EXACTLY !!  The fan I use is a 3” computer muffin fan, just like I say in my document.  The principal is simple, remove the heat from the fins on the rear of the fridge and this allows the system to expel more heat from inside the fridge to the rear fins thus dropping temperature inside the fridge.
