Current Bachelor and Master theses:
MASTER THESES | “EuroValve” PROJECT
CFD simulation of a safety valve and investigation of the forces acting on the safety valve disc.
Construction of a two-dimensional simulation of a safety valve and investigation of the forces acting on the safety valve disc. It is possible to build on previous simulations and measurements.
Working steps:
- Literature research on available simulations and measurements
- Definition of relevant influential parameters on the distribution of the flow force at the valve disc
- Creation of a two-dimensional simulation of the flow forces
at the valve disc based on an existing safety valve for single-phase compressible media - Sensitivity analysis in relation to the relevant influential parameters
Processing time: 6 months

MASTER THESES | PROJECT “sRMC”
Development of a physical model for gas leaks to validate the sensor data of an intelligent early detection system
Within the scope of this work, a physical model for gas leakages is to be developed for the validation of previously defined sensor systems of an early detection system.
Working steps:
- Literature research to determine the characteristics of non-permissible leakage
- Definition of the requirements for an early detection system with multi-sensor technology for the detection of gas leaks
- Systematic selection of suitable sensors for measuring sound (frequency/volume), vibration, temperature and medium
- Development of a physical model of a leakage flow and determination of a gas leakage mass flow on the basis of the previously
defined measured quantities. - Planning of an experimental set-up to test the sensors and the model in the laboratory for weak points, accuracies and detection bands.
Processing time: 6 months
