1. A method for non-linear operation of a cooling device, the method comprising:
- establishing a non-linear optimum cooling curve for the cooling device;
approximating a plurality of substantially linear cooling curves to relate to portions of the non-linear cooling curve;
selecting one of the plurality of substantially linear cooling curves for operating the cooling device; and
operating the cooling device along the selected one of the plurality of substantially linear cooling curves.

Abstract
A system for adjusting the operation of a cooling device includes a cooling device, an input sensory device, a control algorithm, and a controller that adjusts operation of the cooling device based on the control algorithm. An embodiment of the control algorithm approximates a plurality of substantially linear cooling curves to relate to portions of a non-linear cooling curve for the cooling device, the algorithm selects a selected cooling curve from the plurality of substantially linear cooling curves based on an input from the sensory device. The system and an associated method may be implemented to cool an information handling system.
