Research assistant Applied Geology

Mail: dominik.mueller@geo.uni-halle.de Tel: +49 (0)345 55 26137 Room: H3 4.33 Consultation hours: by appointment

My research interests lie in the simulation of flow and transport processes, especially in the field of seasonal thermal energy storage in caverns (CTES) and their environmental impact as well as the role of fracture networks.

Focus Areas:

Simulation of flow and transport processes, seasonal thermal energy storage in caverns (CTES), environmental impact of thermal energy storage, influence of fracture networks on CTES
