The lecture "Gasturbines and Thermoacoustics" takes place in the winter semester and consists of 5 blocks. Each block lasts for 3 to 4 days.

Registration is not required.

The lecture notes will be provided on the corresponding ISIS website. The required password will be announced in the first block or can be requested at the responsible project leaders (see contact below).

Times and rooms may be subject to sudden change, please check regularly the ISIS website for updates.

 

Field trip

We will organize a field trip to the Berlin Siemens Power plant. As soon as a date is arranged, it will be notified at here, during lectures and on ISIS. Since the space is limited, registration the visit is mandatory.
