Department: Faculty 3 - Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Energy Systems
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Prof. Dr.-Ing. Höschler, Klaus
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every summer semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:After a successful completion of this module, the students aquire the knowledge on the whole thermal management system (TMS) and the subsystems and components involved. They will be able to analyse the system and design a TMS for a specific appication. In general, the students will gain the knowledge and skills on how to handle the heat generated by the components in a hybrid-electric propulsion systems, and make the whole system more efficient.
