Abstract: A method (1000, 2000, 3000) for operating a wind turbine (100-100d) is disclosed. The wind turbine includes a power conversion system (114, 118, 210, 234, 410, 420, 430) configured to provide electrical output power (P) to a grid (242), and an air-cooling system (450) configured, in a cooling mode, to cool an ambient air (28a) and provide the cooled ambient air as a cooling air (28c) to the power conversion system (114, 118, 210, 234, 410, 420, 430). The method (1000, 2000, 3000) includes operating (1100, 2100, 3100) the air-cooling system (450) in the cooling mode if at least one operating parameter (APD, RPD, TGB, TBS) of the power conversion system (114, 118, 210, 234, 410, 420, 430) is equal to or greater than a respective threshold (Th1_APD, Th1_RPD, Th1_TGB, Th1_TBS).
