Simulation of fins in fan

I am trying to simulate a computer cooling simulation which has vertical fins attached to a base that rotates. Heat is absorbed by the base while cold air is blown from top. I am trying to make a very simple model of this type of fan from Sandia for my class project (www.atomicmpc.com.au/News/263542,sandia-air-bearing-heat-exchanger-starts-cooling-revolution.aspx).
I watched few tutorials and all of them were using CFD plug in COMSOL for these kind of simulation while the licensing in my school doesn't have CFD feature. Therefore, I was wondering if there is a way to build a very simple model of that fan from scratch. I would appreciate link to any tutorials or videos on building a simple version of it.
