In a multitude of different technical processes, the physical understanding of energy, momentum and mass transfer in complex flows along moving boundaries is an essential but as yet insufficiently solved problem. Its practical applications are enormously significant and reach from energy-, process and chemical engineering to technical chemistry, sea engineering as well as mechanical engineering.Superior aim of the research training group is to unite partial aspects of transport phenomena along moving boundaries from various branches. Respective technical-scientific objects and methodic procedures are to be analyzed, jointly developed and finally put into practice in a cooperative research and science program.The chance to work out and to discuss different methods for the explanation of thematically different but physically similar transport phenomena is given to the project members. College teachers introduce and help them to acquire specialized knowledge from other fields. In addition, they support and effectively examine short-term achievements so that PhD thesises will be finished quickly. In this way, an attractive, topical and practice-near education is offered to the young generation of scientists.The research training group is integrated into the faculty-spanning research center "Forschungsschwerpunkt Fluidsystemtechnik" which was founded in 1999 by the TU Berlin and whose members the supervising Professors are.
