Provided herein is a system and method for cooling a sensor enclosure of a vehicle. The system comprises one or more sensors configured to determine a speed of the vehicle, an internal temperature of an enclosure, and an external temperature. The system comprises an enclosure to house the one or more sensors. The system comprises a fan disposed at a base of the enclosure. The system comprises a controller configured to regulate a rotation speed of the fan based on the speed of the vehicle, the internal temperature of the enclosure, the external temperature, or the difference between the internal temperature of the enclosure and the external temperature. The controller operates the fan at the regulated rotation speed.
