Bachelorthesis
Micron sized metal powder can serve as a carbon free energy carrier in a circular energy economy, in a similar manner as hydrogen. Energy is stored by reducing aluminum ore to aluminum. The CO2-free combustion of aluminum particles suspended in pure steam (H2O) is one possible thermochemical process to release the stored energy, obtaining around half of the energy in the form of heat and hydrogen gas, respectively.
Recently at STFS, a Lagrangian point-particle model has been developed which features the most important physical processes of individual particle combustion on the micro-scale. This enables simulations of macroscopic flame propagation through particle suspensions. In this thesis, the interaction of these micro-scale processes on the macroscopic flame propagation, i.e. flame stabilization is to be evaluated.

Masterthesis
The Institute for Simulation of Reactive Thermo-Fluid Systems (STFS) conducts cutting-edge research on reactive flows and alternative energy carriers. One of our focus areas is the combustion of metallic fuels, which have the potential to play a key role in future energy systems.
Aluminum, in particular, undergoes a unique combustion process where evaporated metal reacts with steam, forming hydrogen and aluminum oxide. The global reaction and transport rates are controlled by a multitude of tightly coupled processes, including phase changes, gas phase reactions, thermophoresis, and droplet shape evolution—key aspects that are not yet fully understood.
In this thesis, you will contribute to refining numerical models for these processes using OpenFOAM-based simulations. Your work will help improve the predictive capabilities of existing models, enabling more accurate simulations of aluminum combustion.
Do you have experience in CFD, physical modeling, or programming (Python/C++) in a Unix-based environment? If not, are you eager to develop these skills? If so, we encourage you to contact us for more information!
