Reactive Flows and Diagnostics
Welcome to the website of the Institute of Reactive Flows and Diagnostics of the department of Mechanical Engineering at TU Darmstadt
Prof. Andreas Dreizler,
Head of RSM
We investigate the foundations for the clean energy converters of tomorrow. For this, we apply cutting-edge laser diagnostics to look into the physics and chemistry of engineering applications. Our ultimate goal is to increase the efficiency of technical systems while minimizing pollutant emissions.

Professor Dreizler in Discourse over Energy Supply
April 14, 2023
The First E+E Discourse Took Place on December 1, 2022
In the first discourse of the research field Energy + Environment (E+E), moderated by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Peter Pelz in the Lichtenberghaus, innovative energy projects were presented and topics such as scarcity of raw materials, opportunities and risks of nuclear fusion, as well as prerequisites for innovations in Germany and Europe were discussed. The project “SolarRetrofit” (Ulrich Hueck, Siemens), which is based on the idea of Desertec, was presented as well as the cluster project “Clean Circles”, which deals with the storage of energy using iron (Prof. Dr. Andreas Dreizler, TU Darmstadt). Other guests included Prof. Dr. Markus Roth, founder of Focused Energy, and Prof. Dr. Ulrike Kramm from the collaborative research center “Iron, Upgraded!”.
