  • Patent number: 11971188
    Abstract: A problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to realize a fan unit capable of determining occurrence or non-occurrence of a backflow during operation. In a second unit, a second controller calculates front-rear differential pressure by substituting a rotation speed and a volume of air or a wind speed that can be acquired in real time into a relational expression. The relational expression derives, from two values of the rotation speed, the volume of air or the wind speed, and the front-rear differential pressure, the remaining one value. Then, the second controller determines that a backflow occurs if the calculated front-rear differential pressure is within a range that cannot occur under a normal condition. Therefore, the occurrence of a backflow can be detected without using an expensive pressure sensor or a directional wind speed sensor.

  • Patent number: 11836023
    Abstract: An information handling system uses one connector for both liquid and air cooling and detects the type of cooling system installed. That provides the ability to choose the correct thermal handling table based on the installed cooling system. To detect the type of cooling system installed, a thermal management controller sets a control signal supplied to the cooling system through the connector to a first control value and determines if a tachometer signal supplied by the cooling system to the thermal management controller through the connector indicates a first type of cooling system. If the first type of cooling system is not detected, the thermal management controller checks if the tachometer signal from the cooling system with the control signal set at the first control value, or alternatively at a second control value, indicates a second type of cooling system. If no cooling system is detected, an error condition exists.
