A thaw plate has a separate, self support motor unit which has an air exhaust which can be brought into proximity of an inlet opening of a plate support tray to cause air to flow underneath a thermal conduction plate in a manner that will cause thawing to occur. In a first embodiment a battery powered fan will cool the bottom of a thaw plate. The use of a fan to cause air to sweep across the bottom of the conduction plate will insure that enough flow will be present that the plate will not sweat or freeze. A second embodiment includes an air density chimney will be used to passively create a stream of air which will sweep a thermal conduction plate to create a warm air flow to enhance the thawing process in proportion to the difference in temperature between the thawing masses and the room temperature air.
