Method for controlling the temperature of an x-ray device, x-ray device and computer program product

A method for controlling a temperature of an X-ray device, comprising:

• detecting a heating parameter of a heating element, wherein the heating parameter characterizes a heat output instantaneously supplied to at least one component of the X-ray device via the heating element;
• identifying a target heating parameter for the heating element, wherein the target heating parameter characterizes a heat output to be supplied to the at least one component of the X-ray device via the heating element;
• and
• adjusting a fluid supply parameter of a fluid supply unit as a function of a comparison of the heating parameter and the target heating parameter, wherein
• the fluid supply unit is configured to supply a fluid to control the temperature of the at least one component of the X-ray device,
• the fluid supply parameter comprises a specification relating to at least one of a fluid temperature or a quantity of fluid to be supplied per unit of time, and
• the fluid is supplied by the fluid supply unit based on the adjusted fluid supply parameter.
