Abstract

A method for operating a cooling system of a transformer, wherein the transformer is cooled via a cooling liquid that circulates in the cooling system that includes a heat-exchanger, devices for increasing heat exchange performance of the at heat-exchanger and a controller, where in a normal operating state, the controller adjusts power of the devices for increasing the heat exchange performance as a function of a measured upper temperature and where, irrespective of the measured upper temperature, the controller refrains from activating the devices and/or operates the devices at a reduced power relative to the normal operating state if the lower temperature of the cooling liquid lies below a lower threshold value during operation of the transformer to achieve improved characteristics of the cooling system during operation under low environmental temperatures of the transformer, particularly in the case of a turn-on operation following lengthy storage in a cold state.
