Abstract (en)

[origin: US2015241092A1] Methods and apparatuses for controlling heat flow in a mobile system. The method includes determining a temperature value for each of at least one temperature sensors. The method determines a delta value of a current temperature threshold at each of the plurality of locations. The method maps each delta value to a thermal module. The method calculates a heat flow direction signal to minimize positive delta values using at least one of the following: a system level model and an IC level thermal model. The method transmits the heat flow direction signal to at least one thermoelectric module, wherein the thermoelectric module is associated with more than one temperature sensor.
