About to kick-off our „HyCoMES“ project on Europe's first Exascale supercomputer – JUPITER! High Performance Computing meets Clean Energy Innovation

How can green hydrogen burn clean, safe, and efficient in next-gen gas turbines? That’s the key question of our new project HyCoMES (Data-Driven Hydrogen Combustion Modeling using Exascale Simulations), which was chosen as a lighthouse project on the first European Exascale System Jupiter.

Simulation of reactive Thermo-Fluid Systems (STFS), TU Darmstadt is one of the few research groups in Germany granted access to this unprecedented level of computing power. Kudos to my group leader Hendrik Nicolai for steering this effort!

Together with ETH Zurich and Forschungszentrum Jülich, we are excited to explore this new HPC frontier: For the first time, we can simulate turbulent hydrogen flames under realistic conditions, i.e., high pressure, temperature, and realistic Reynolds and Karlovitz numbers.

Our vision: Using cutting-edge AI, we aim to turn these unique datasets into surrogate models that support the development of future hydrogen gas turbines – connecting fundamental science and practical application.
