FW-Research

We Research and Develop for the Future.

All the research we do at FW-FERNWÄRME-TECHNIK GmbH is related to applications, developments and products.

Tests on cryogenic and high temperatures, e.g. at -196 °C
Tests on cryogenic and high temperatures, e.g. at -196 °C

Research projects – examples:

  • Studies of thermal conductivity of insulation materials
  • Low and high temperature tests at temperature ranges from -196 °C (fluid nitrogen) to 400 °C
  • Vacuum experiments (desorption and adsorption)
  • Optimisation of support and anchor designs
  • Effects of friction and supporting force (surface ruin due to frictional wear)
  • Analyses of insulation materials
  • Temperature profile at the bearing area
  • Durability tests of mineral wool insulation materials (boiling test)
  • Thermal behaviour of FW STEEL-CASED PIPE-IN-PIPE (heat loss and encasing pipe temperature)
