Abstract
The disclosed technology provides systems and methods for an enclosure system with optimized internal dynamically controllable airflow distribution. The systems include a computing system enclosure, and an electroactive film adhered to a surface of the computing system enclosure and configured to redirect airflow distribution in the computing system enclosure. In another implementation, a method monitoring airflow distribution within a computing system enclosure with a plurality of sensors, and controlling an orientation of a programmable microstructure in an electroactive film adhered to a surface of the computing system enclosure based on results of the monitoring operation. In yet another implementation, the disclosed technology includes bimetallic baffles configured for utilization in a computing system enclosure to redirect airflow distribution within the computing system enclosure.
