Method for detecting a loss in performance of a heat exchanger (1) of a cooling circuit for mechanical parts, comprising a first, functional-fluid circuit that passes through a power transmission mechanical part (3) driven by a motor (2), and a second, cooling-fluid circuit that receives the calorific power dissipated through the exchanger by the first fluid, characterized in that the calorific power (P) dissipated in the exchanger by the first fluid in the direction of the second fluid is compared with a reference power (Pr) determined as a function of the mass flow of the first and the second fluid through the exchanger. |
