Chair for Technical Thermodynamics
Person
The research focus of the Chair of Technical Thermodynamics lies in the investigation and improvement of processes in energy and process engineering. A key topic in this context is the optimisation of combustion processes, ranging from improving the understanding of simple model flames, which is still inadequate in many cases today, to experimental investigations of complex technical systems. Current issues include the design of hydrogen burners and various aspects of soot formation. Combustion processes also play an important role in the synthesis of nanoparticles with defined properties. In addition, the LTT is also involved in a variety of other processes for particle production in the gas and liquid phase.
