Trauer um Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens von Wolfersdorf

Das Institut für Thermodynamik der Luft- und Raumfahrt trauert um Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens von Wolfersdorf (15.5.1963 - 2.10.2024). Prof. von Wolfersdorf verstarb unerwartet nach kurzer, schwerer Krankheit, am 2.10.2024.

Nach seiner Industrietätigkeit am ABB Forschungszentrum/Alstom Technology in Baden in der Schweiz wurde er in 2001 als Professor an die Universität Stuttgart berufen. Dort war er am Institut für Thermodynamik der Luft- und Raumfahrt für mehr als 20 Jahre als Professor und stellvertretender Institutsleiter tätig. Für seine vielfältigen wissenschaftlichen Beiträge auf dem Gebiet der Wärmeübertragung war er international sehr bekannt und hoch angesehen. 

Wir trauern um einen großartigen Wissenschaftler, einen stets freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Menschen. Unser tief empfundenes Mitgefühl gilt seiner Familie.

Wir alle werden ihn sehr vermissen und werden ihm ein ehrendes Andenken bewahren!

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens von Wolfersdorf (* 15. Mai 1963; † 2. Oktober 2024)
