A thermal distribution detecting unit detects a thermal distribution state on a surface of an electronic device. An emission control unit identifies a position to be cooled in accordance with the thermal distribution state detected. A nozzle selecting unit selects a cooling nozzle corresponding to the position. An emission time computing unit computes a coolant emission time and timing for the cooling nozzle. Upon reception of an instruction from the emission control unit, a drive unit drives a nozzle unit, thereby allowing a jet of coolant to impinge upon the electronic device.
