In general, the 15-in models have two fans, and the 13-in models have one fan.


Fan speeds are based on measured temperatures inside your Mac, so the fans go faster when higher heat is measured.


Fail-Safe hardware drives the fans to maximum if the System Management Controller does not come by to set then Lower several times a second.


If the processor get really hot, (near 100 C) it will do an emergency power-down to save itself.
