Here's what a propane heater of similar output looks like: https://www.amazon.com/Dura-Heat-Propane-Forced-Heater/dp/B0...

Most of the propane heater is a fan in a tube, the flame is probably quite smaller than a CPU package.

I've got an 8kW wood stove and that thing gets rather hot to touch - as in, you will get a blister... 40kW is a small city car worth of power.

If you think about it, cars can manage cooling 200+kW with a radiator - and a lot of airflow.

That's still an amazing amount of power though. I can't help thinking about the kind of sear you could get on a steak with 40kW of power :D
