    Abstract: Method and control device for controlling a cooling device (10) which is set up to control the temperature of a rolling stock, preferably metal strip (B), which the cooling device (10) runs through along a conveying direction (F), the cooling device (10) preferably in front of a rolling train is arranged and the method comprises: determining a total enthalpy of the system formed by the rolling stock; Determining a measure for the formation of scale, which preferably comprises a scale factor that depends on the chemical composition and the surface temperature of the rolling stock; Calculating a temperature distribution and/or average temperature in the rolling stock on the basis of a temperature calculation model, in which the determined total enthalpy and the measure for the formation of scale are included; and setting a cooling capacity of the cooling device (10) taking into account the calculated temperature distribution and/or average temperature in the rolling stock.
