Abstract

The invention relates to a method () for determining the flow direction (R) of a coolant (M). The coolant (M) flows past at least two adjacent components (K, K) one after the other in order to cool the components (K, K). The method has the following steps: ascertaining a first temperature () which is paired with the first component (K) of the at least two adjacent components; ascertaining a second temperature () which is paired with the second component (K) of the at least two adjacent components; ascertaining the difference () between the ascertained temperatures; and determining the flow direction () of the coolant on the basis of the ascertained difference.
