Henning Otto defended his thesis on the theoretical, numerical and experimental investigation on how thermally induced flow destroys exergy in thermal energy storages. His work leads to a much better understanding and thus will considerably help to include heat from renewables to our energy supply system. Congratulations Dr. HenningOtto, it was a great pleasure working with you and all the best for your future career!
Some of his findings Henning published already:
