Claim 13:
14. The method of claim 12, further comprising:
simultaneously operating multiple cooling fans together with each of the multiple cooling fans operating at the same common current real time rotational speed to draw cooling air into the enclosed interior of the chassis enclosure through the cooling air inlets from an atmosphere surrounding an outside of the external walls of the chassis enclosure and to circulate the cooling air from the cooling air inlets to the cooling air outlets to provide the cooling air of the airflow through the enclosed interior of the chassis enclosure of the information handling system;
determining the common current real time rotational speed at which all of the multiple cooling fans is operating and a current real time total value of electric power consumed together by all of the multiple cooling fans; and
determining a total current real time volumetric airflow rate of the cooling air circulated from the cooling air inlets to the cooling air outlets through the enclosed interior of the chassis enclosure by all of the multiple cooling fans operating together as a function of the determined current real time total value of electric power consumed together by all of the multiple cooling fans and the determined common current rotational speed of all of the multiple cooling fans.
