The aim of the project is the development of new, ecologically and building acoustically optimised ceiling constructions in timber construction with increased sound insulation at low frequencies. more

The development of efficient heating and cooling systems has been a major research focus in recent years. In particular, surface tempering systems are often the subject of these investigations, partly because view in heating mode they are very advantageous from an exergetic point of and additionally they produce comparable or higher thermal comfort than convection heating systems at lower room air temperatures, which means that they can result in lower energy consumption in the building.

Efficient heat storage and energy generation system for thermal conditioning of buildings

The German government plans to achieve a nearly climate-neutral building stock by the middle of the century. In addition to heating a building efficiently, cooling is becoming increasingly important and new, sustainable solutions are needed. [more]

Investigation of the room-side heat transfer to building envelope components and development of a calculation method

Within the framework of the research project "Investigation of room-side heat transfer to components of the building envelope and development of a calculation method", a significant gain in knowledge about room-side heat transfer to components of the building envelope is to be achieved.  [more]

Person focused tracking infrared heating system with design software for energy-efficient and comfortable heating of industrial halls

By the middle of this century, the building stock in Germany should be nearly climate-neutral according the climate goals of the German government. From 2020 onwards, the implementation of the nearly zero energy building standard is being implemented for new buildings. In addition to residential and office buildings there is also a great need for energy-efficient industrial buildings (production halls etc.). [more]
