Abstract
In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a system may include a cooling subsystem comprising at least one air mover configured to generate a cooling airflow in the system and a thermal manager communicatively coupled to the cooling subsystem and configured to: (i) determine a minimum air mover speed and maximum air mover speed based on a minimum sound level and a maximum sound level for sound generated by the at least one air mover; and (ii) operate the at least one air mover in accordance with thermal requirements of the system subject to the maximum air mover speed and the minimum air mover speed.
