Abstract
A system selectively cools a set of at least one rack-mounted server in a chassis. The system comprises: a chassis; a chassis manager; a set of at least one thermal sensor coupled to each rack-mounted server in the chassis; a cold air source; a cold air conduit coupled to the cold air source; a plurality of cold air valves coupled to the cold air conduit; and an expandable tube of flexible memory material coupled to each of the plurality of cold air valves, where the expandable tube inflates with cold air from the cold air source to expose directional holes, and thus cold air, across a specific predetermined sub-area of a particular overheating rack-mounted server in response to the chassis manager detecting that the particular overheating rack-mounted server is exceeding a predetermined temperature.
