Adaptive cooling techniques in electronic devices

摘要

Cooling of a computing device is described herein. The computing device includes a plurality of fans, a plurality of sensors, and a processor in communication with the plurality of fans and the plurality of sensors. Each sensor of the plurality of sensors is associated with at least one fan of the plurality of fans and is operable to determine a temperature. The processor is configured to determine, for each sensor of the plurality of sensors, a difference between the determined temperature and a predetermined temperature corresponding to the sensor. The processor is also configured to compared the determined differences. The processor is configured to increase a speed of at least a first fan of the plurality of fans based on the comparison, and determine which fan of the plurality of fans to decrease fan speed based on the increased speed of the first fan.
