📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses how to interpret temperature sensor data retrieved via WMIC on a Windows system, with the initial poster asking about specific temperature readings in Kelvin (multiplied by 10). A respondent explains that these readings typically represent a system-wide thermal zone rather than individual components like CPU or HDD. The original poster then provides a follow-up script and data showing specific thermal zones, emphasizing how to properly convert the Kelvin-based readings into Celsius. Overall, the conversation centers on understanding Windows thermal sensor data, with a constructive tone and technical guidance.

Hi All,


Whose temps are these? CPU, Mobo, HD?
rem Admin <cmd>
rem Results are in kelvin *10
rem °Celsius = (result / 10 ) - 273.15
wmic /namespace:\\root\wmi PATH MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature get CurrentTemperature
3010
3030



Converting:
(3010 ÷ 10) − 273.15 = 27.85
(3030 ÷ 10) − 273.15 = 29.85



Many thanks,
-T

Depends how the motherboard is presenting exposed sensors. It's likely a system wide thermal zone, so not specific to any one component.

The zones are:
ACPI\ThermalZone\TZ10_0
ACPI\ThermalZone\TZ00_0
<temperature.bat>
@echo off
rem Admin <cmd>
rem Results are in kelvin *10
rem °Celsius = (result / 10 ) - 273.15
echo Temperature with Thermal zones
echo Temperature is in Kelvin C = (K / 10) - 273.15
wmic /namespace:\\root\wmi PATH MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature get CurrentTemperature,InstanceName
echo.
rem Without thermal zones
rem echo Temperature in Kelvin * 10 C = (K / 10) - 273.15
rem wmic /namespace:\\root\wmi PATH MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature get CurrentTemperature
