Abstract
The invention relates to a method for heating a device driven with a brushless direct current motor, in which method a voltage is applied to stator coils of the brushless direct current motor during a heating phase. The invention further relates to a device for carrying out said method. According to the invention, the stator coils are series-connected during the heating phase. The series connection of the stator coils increases the resistance by a factor of 4.5 compared to a parallel connection of a stator coil with a series connection of two stator coils, as occurs in a brushless direct current motor wired according to the prior art. The heating power is therefore also higher by a factor of 4.5 with the same operating current.
