We simulate thermal systems and energy systems with physically based models. Thereby, we can investigate different concepts in early stages of development or comprehend and improve existing systems with all its interactions.
Control. From Concept to Implementation.
For reliable and efficient operation of thermal systems a multiplicity of feedback control problems must be considered. We support you in the development and implementation of the best control concept for your system.
We take appropriate measures to meet your specific requirements: from classic PID controllers to model-based methods.
Optimization. Maximum Efficiency, Minimal Costs.
Almost every engineering task can be described as a mathematical optimization problem. We support you in describing and solving the optimization problem.
In combination with your knowledge and experience, you gain valuable tools to improve your systems to the best costs and conditions.

TLK Energy GmbH is a consulting and service company specialized in thermodynamics and energy technologies.
The company is headed by Dr.-Ing. Manuel Gräber and Dr.-Ing. Franz Lanzerath.
Dr.-Ing. Manuel Gräber works on modeling, optimization and controlling of thermal systems since 2008.
He received his PhD at TU Braunschweig after finishing his thesis on "Energy-Optimal Control of Refrigeration Processes".
As research assistant at TU Braunschweig and employee of TLK-Thermo GmbH, Manuel Gräber carried out numerous research and development projects with various partners from industry.
His focus is the combination of a broad theoretical knowledge base in different disciplines with practical experience of concrete engineering projects.
Dr.-Ing. Franz Lanzerath received his doctorate in the area of model-based development of thermal systems at RWTH
Aachen University and has been working in this field now for over 12 years. As long-time head of department at the
Chair of Technical Thermodynamics he has gained a lot of experience in the coordination and management of
international collaborative projects. At TLK Energy he is responsible, among other things, for the transfer of the
latest scientific methods and findings into industrial practice.
We offer our customers the following software products.
We will be glad to advise you on all options and to develop an individual software solution for you.
Additional software products can be found on the website of our partner company
TLK-Thermo GmbH .
We will be happy to advise you on this as well.

INTERACTIVE DIAGRAM
For refrigeration systems, the log-p-h diagram
is probably the most widely used graphical visualization.
We use it every day in simulation projects to grasp the state of a system at one sight.
For our web-based simulation apps we have developed an interactive log-p-h diagram with JavaScript.
You can use it for free and create a cycle yourself. Try it out.
CEO STATEMENT: Manuel
Three years ago, we started developing a platform for web-based simulation apps.
After a few hurdles and the usual detours, we now know how to do it. 💪 Once the model is in place,
we can provide a custom modern user interface for your system simulation application – backed by unlimited cloud computing power.
In this way, TLK Energy Apps can be used to exchange knowledge between project partners and as interactive content for marketing or education.
NEW BLOG: Simulation Apps
Pascal explains the path from model creation with complex simulation software to an intuitive TLK Energy
app for web-based simulation with interactive result graphics. The app makes it easier for us to communicate
with project partners about the current model status and can also be used by non-simulation experts.
In addition, TLK Energy Apps can also serve as a digital tool for teaching or marketing.
Read more about it in the blog article.
