The TOPFLOW (Transient TwO Phase FLOW Test Facility) thermal-hydraulic experimental facilities are used to investigate thermal-hydraulic phenomena under realistic operating conditions. Experiments are conducted in industry-relevant geometries representative of chemical process engineering as well as conventional and nuclear energy systems. The research activities include air–water and steam–water flow investigations, flash evaporation of refrigerants in the TERESA facility, and experiments with supercritical CO₂ in the CARBOSOLA loop.

The MULTIMAG (MULTIpurpose MAGnetic field system) facility can be used for the research on ­magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomena.MULTIMAG can be used to combine rotating, travelling, pulsating and static ­magnetic fields. Because no ferro­magnetic materials are used, any linear superposition of various field types is possible.

The chemical engineering research group possesses up-to-date equipped chemical and physical laboratories. Among a wet chemistry lab and measuring equipment for thermo-physical properties, se­veral reaction calori­meters, miniplants and chemical analysers are available.

The LIMMCAST facility is used to investigate the process of continuous casting of metals and to improve it by applying properly designed electro­magnetic fields.
