Dr.-Ing. Wilhelm Tegethoff
Modeling, simulation, and optimization of cyber-physical complex thermal energy systems.
Dr.-Ing. Nicholas Lemke
Experimental and theoretical investigation of energy-efficient thermal systems and components
The working group researches on battery-electric cars, fuel cell trucks, hydrogen storage and refueling systems, dryers, wastewater treatment plants, heat pumps, refrigeration systems and air conditioning systems. In this context, components such as batteries, fuel cells, compressors, heat exchangers, mass transfer devices, thermo-electric modules and ejectors are analyzed. Novel control techniques are emerging. The natural refrigerant R744 is the focus of much research. Modern system and CFD simulation methods as well as novel measurement techniques are used. The working group cooperates nationally and internationally with numerous research institutions and companies.
