Patent ID: 8364320

Claim:
A device for controlling the temperature of a dynamic heat source, comprising a pump diode coolant circuit which circulates a temperature-controlling medium, and a refrigerant circuit coupled to this coolant circuit through a heat exchanger, wherein a forward flow temperature measuring device, a circulating pump and switching devices for the regulation of the power are provided within the pump diode coolant circuit, characterized in that a return flow temperature measuring device is arranged within the pump diode coolant circuit, wherein the forward flow temperature measuring device and the return flow temperature measuring device are connected to an analog or digital computing unit which performs a mean value calculation in order to determine a refrigerating capacity set value which is transmitted to the switching devices for the regulation of the power; and wherein the diode-specific heat irradiation is determined over the respective pump performance, and this dependency is input into the computing unit as a second correction factor K 2 or as a correction function f(K 2 ).
