Abstract
Provided is a method for controlling the cold gas temperature of a cooling gas of a closed generator cooling gas circuit of a generator having at least one cooler through which a cooling fluid flows. The method includes: a) defining cold gas temperature setpoint values in dependence on the stator and rotor current of the generator; b) detecting the current cold gas temperature; c) detecting the current stator and rotor current; d) determining the cold gas temperature setpoint value associated with the stator and rotor current detected in step c); e) regulating the cold gas temperature by changing the volumetric flow of the cooling fluid supplied to the at least one cooler as a function of the difference between the current cold gas temperature detected in step b) and the cold gas temperature setpoint value determined in step d); and f) repeating steps b) to e) at defined time intervals.
