Claim:
1. A temperature adjusting apparatus for a server, the temperature adjusting apparatus comprising: a case, having at least an air inlet and at least an air outlet; a frame, disposed in the case to accommodate a plurality of server units; a plurality of temperature sensors, disposed on a side of the frame, which is close to the air inlet, corresponding to positions of the plurality of server units to sense temperatures; a plurality of fans, disposed on a side of the frame, which is close to the air outlet, corresponding to the positions of the plurality of server units; and a control unit, coupled to the plurality of temperature sensors and the plurality of fans and controlling a rotation speed and a rotation direction of each of the plurality of fans according to sensing results of the plurality of temperature sensors, wherein the control unit further determines whether the temperatures sensed by the plurality of temperature sensors are less than a first preset temperature, and if any of the temperatures sensed by the plurality of temperature sensors is less than the first preset temperature, the control unit controls the fans corresponding to the temperature sensors that sense the temperatures less than the first preset temperature to rotate in the first direction, the control unit further determines whether the temperatures sensed by the plurality of temperature sensors are greater than a second preset temperature, and if the temperatures sensed by the plurality of temperature sensors are greater than the second preset temperature, the control unit stops adjusting the rotation speed and the rotation direction of the plurality of fans, wherein the second preset temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, wherein when the plurality of fans are controlled by the control unit to rotate in a first direction, the plurality of fans generate an air flow flowing from the air outlet to the air inlet to increase the temperatures of the plurality of server units, and when the plurality of fans are controlled by the control unit to rotate in a second direction, the plurality of fans generate an air flow flowing from the air inlet to the air outlet to reduce the temperatures of the plurality of server units.
