Zusammenfassung:A method of operating an electrical generator with a control unit may include: providing an electrical output voltage by rotating a rotor unit relative to a stator unit at a given rotation speed; providing the control unit with a control unit supply voltage; determining a control unit supply voltage value of the control unit supply voltage; providing the rotor unit with a rotor supply voltage; determining a rotation speed of the rotor unit; determining an ambient temperature of the electrical generator; determining a rotor supply voltage value for the determined rotation speed, and the determined ambient temperature and the determined control unit supply voltage value at which the electrical generator may have a maximal permitted thermal load; and operating the electrical generator at the maximal permitted thermal load by at least one of adjusting and controlling the rotor supply voltage of the rotor unit to the determined rotor supply voltage value.
