Abstract
A method and apparatus for measuring the cooling efficacy of air comprising coupling a resistive element to a temperature sensing element, applying a voltage across the resistive element, adjusting the voltage across the resistive element so that the temperature indicated by the temperature sensing element is nearly proportional to the temperature of a locally disposed heat sensitive component for a change in environmental parameters, and coupling the output of the temperature sensing element to a control circuit wherein the control circuit controls a space cooling element.
