See full text

Method and system are provided for controlling a scalable panel cooling system having multiple cooling panels for cooling multiple heat-generating components housed in a support structure. The method includes: dividing a support structure into areas, each area capable of housing one or more heat-generating component; providing a cooling panel adjacent an area of the support structure, a cooling panel being operable to cool the one or more heat-generating components housed in the area; determining whether an area of the support structure is housing one or more operational heat-generating components; and activating a cooling panel adjacent an area housing one or more operational heat-generating components; and de-activating a cooling panel adjacent an area housing no operational heat-generating components.
