1. A cooling system comprising:
an air conditioner configured to be capable of cooling a predetermined space and changing an air volume or a set temperature thereof; at least one electronic device disposed in the predetermined space and provided with a fan whose rotational speed is variable; a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the at least one electronic device; and a control apparatus configured control the air conditioner so as to increase the air volume or decrease the set temperature, or to control the fan so as to increase the rotational speed, based on a rise in the temperature of the at least one electronic device detected by the temperature sensor, air-conditioner information and fan information, wherein the air-conditioner information indicates a relationship between cooling performance and power consumption of the air conditioner, and the fan information indicates a relationship between cooling performance and power consumption of the fan, wherein the control apparatus controls the fan so as to increase the rotational speed when the rise in the temperature of the at least one electronic device detected by the temperature sensor is smaller than a threshold value, and controls the air conditioner so as to increase the air volume or decrease the set temperature when the rise in the temperature of the at least one electronic device detected by the temperature sensor is greater than or equal to the threshold value, and sets the threshold value equal to the rise in the temperature of the at least one electronic device detected by the temperature sensor at which a magnitude relation between the power consumptions of the air conditioner and the power consumption of the fan is inverted according to a small or large rise in the temperature of the at least one electronic device detected by the temperature sensor. |
