Focus:

  • Urban Energy Lab 4.0 - FlexFass and Raumklimalabor: Planning, construction and operation of the large-scale test stands.
  • TexDicht: Investigation of innovative textile ventilation seals in the small-scale test rig as well as in the FlexFass with regard to the building-physical behavior and the influence on the indoor climate
  • ReFaTEk: Conceptual design and development of an energy clinker façade in the FlexFass test rig; building physics investigation of the façade system and design of the hydraulics and measurement technology; creation of a simulation model and validation via the test setup; transfer of control concept and setup to real projects and verification of the simulation model
  • Hall coordinator of the experimental hall for energy-efficient construction
