About us

TLK-Thermo GmbH was founded in 2003 by our managing directors Dr. Nicholas Lemke and Dr. Wilhelm Tegethoff – together with the then director of the thermal science lab at the TU Braunschweig, Prof. Dr. Jürgen Köhler.

From the very beginning, the idea was to combine simulation services with the development of software and the performance of measurements. We needed specific programs and test benches to be able to simulate and validate our customers' thermodynamic issues. At the same time, many customers also wanted customized software and individual measurements from us.

The fact that this approach - and of course our topics relating to technical thermodynamics - was and is exactly right is reflected not least in our steadily growing order volume. Our team is growing accordingly. In 2014 and 2015, we founded new branches in Munich and Aachen with our partner companies LTX and TLK-Energy in order to be able to provide good support for our expanding customer base in southern and western Germany. We now also have a branch office in Sweden.

The comprehensive thermodynamic expertise that we at TLK can draw on is based on the profound interdisciplinary knowledge of our employees, most of whom have been with us for many years. With collegial structures in our company, we promote self-determined work, which in turn strengthens the professional curiosity, commitment and personal responsibility in our team.

Our varied and challenging customer orders enable us to constantly expand our specialist knowledge. We are involved in numerous scientific research projects so that we can always think ahead and develop new, possibly risky techniques. In all of this, expert and close cooperation with our customers and project partners is of particular importance to us. Because we see our work as being done by experts for experts.
