Abstract
A method stabilizes the temperature in a gear pump lubricated with material to be delivered. At least one housing part has at least two slide bearings in which shafts are mounted and are lubricated by medium to be delivered. A medium is adjusted in a temperature stabilizer to a predetermined temperature and then flows firstly through the housing part and secondly through shafts and/or slide bearings to stabilize the temperature.
