As someone else suggested, Radio Shack sells 'muffin' fans. Not sure if they have a sound (dB) rating or not; if not I'd be inclined to go with one with a lower air movement (cfm) figure else you'll hear a lot of noise. You need a breeze, not a gale-force wind!
I would also mount the fan using rubber grommets in order to minimize noise/vibration transmission to the desk (panel acts as a soundboard).
