Abstract

A device converts electrical energy into heat with a conversion module. The conversion module contains a first resistor assembly connected to a first connection terminal and has a plurality of resistor disks, and a first semiconductor switch being used to block or allow a flow of current through the first resistor assembly. The conversion module further has a second resistor assembly connected to the first connection terminal and has a plurality of resistor disks, and a second semiconductor switch being used to block or allow a flow of current through the second resistor assembly. The resistor disks of the first and of the second resistor assembly are arranged in a first stack between first and second cooling plates. The first stack has a middle cooling plate which separates the resistor disks of the first resistor assembly from the resistor disks of the second resistor assembly.
