1. A method for regulating a compressor of a pressure supply system for a motor vehicle, wherein the compressor is driven by an electric motor and switched on and off in dependence on a limit temperature of one or more components of the pressure supply system ascertained with the aid of a temperature calculation method, wherein said limit temperature for switching the compressor on or off is ascertained using the temperature calculation method in dependence on one or more of the parameters: system pressure, ambient temperature, and running time of the compressor, the temperature of the component being ascertained by correlating the heat transfer between the component and an adjacent component,
wherein the component is an O-ring of a compressor piston, the adjacent component is a cylinder tube of the compressor, and the limit temperature of the one or more components of the pressure supply system is the limit temperature of the O-ring, wherein the compressor is switched on and off in dependence on the limit temperature of the O-ring of the compressor piston, the temperature of the O-ring being ascertained by correlating the heat transfer between the cylinder tube of the compressor and the O-ring. |
