Apparatus and method for detecting cooling conditions in a computer

Abstract

A system and method for using one or more anemometers to detect and regulate unfavorable conditions inside a computer system. The anemometer or anemometers, along with other sensing devices are electronically connected to system management software which alerts the system administrator when the measurements collected from the anemometer and other sensing devices indicate that an unfavorable condition, such as overheating, is affecting one or more components inside the computer system. The apparatus and method thus allows the system administrator to quickly and accurately identify unfavorable conditions inside the computer system in a timely manner.
