  • Publication number: 20100200190
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for cooling an energy accumulator in a rail vehicle, using air. According to at least one embodiment of the invention, the air is fed to the energy accumulator directly from an already cooled or air-conditioned area of the rail vehicle. This occurs in particular when the temperature of the area is lower than the external temperature.
