The IEAT has extensive expertise in the field of energy technology and process engineering, which is pooled in various laboratories within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The major areas of focus lie in analysing, modelling and optimising thermal and fluid dynamic systems, for example in fluid flow, energy and control engineering, as well as in vehicle drives and process-oriented simulations. By closely integrating experimental laboratory work and digital modelling, the IEAT makes an important contribution to the development of efficient and sustainable technologies.

The IEAT has solid expertise in modelling and simulating components and systems with the aim of digitally mapping and optimising complex energy and thermal processes. The laboratories for process simulation, control engineering and vehicle systems and smart energy systems, incorporate physical models and simulation-based methods for analysing system behaviour, developing control strategies and facilitating decisions regarding design. This expertise in digital development can be ploughed into putting innovative technologies to targeted use efficiently in real-life applications.
