Master's thesis
The Master's thesis is usually a continuance from your Project work from the previous semester. If you want to change topic/supervisor, it is up to you to contact a new supervisor at the department.

Highlighted Master's theses by research topic
Many students ask for examples of previous master's theses. The list below has been highlighted by the Professors at the Thermo Fluids Research Group (April 2024):
Multiphase and free surface:
- Numerical simulation of a droplet-film collision using a phase-field approach (Tengs, Erik Os: 2016)
- Microfluidics Mixing Using Surface Acoustic Waves (SAW) (Ribe, Jonas M: 2019)
- Experimental study of surface waves on strongly sheared currents - Laboratory, design, building, testing, and measurements (Æsøy, Erik: 2018)
- The effect of turbulence on oxygen uptake of water (Nore, Astri: 2022)
Turbulence and Aerodynamics:
- Aerodynamics of an airfoil subjected to icing (Kyrkjebø, Magnus: 2018)
- A comparison of lab-scale free rotating wind turbines and actuator disks (Helvig, Sanne de Jong: 2020)
- Performance and wake measurements of a Savonius wind turbine (Jessen, Marius Stette and Aliferis, Alexander Dahl: 2018)
- Development of a supersonic jet experiment (Hillestad, Johannes Næsset: 2020)
- Wind Turbine Simulations with OpenFOAM (Hoem, Maria Enger: 2018)
Thermal Energy:
- The Effect of Nonuniform Wall Spacing on the Flame Transfer Function of a Turbulent Swirling Flame (Ånestad, Aksel: 2021)
- Experimental investigation of carbon nanotube photo ignition for combustion in ICEs (Bratsberg, Stian Ranøyen: 2022)

- Ammonia Spray Characterization (Borsheim, Nina: 2023)
Project thesis
The processes for projects and themes are coordinated for all students at the Department of Electric Power Engineering and the Department of Energy- and Process Engineering.
Your supervisor may give you information about project assignment written by earlier students in the same subject .
Would you like to borrow old project assignments? Please contact the Department Office.
Specialization
At the Department of Energy and Process Engineering the students can choose either 2 themes of 3.75 credits or 1 theme of 7.5 credits. See overview of themes at EPT.
Student workplace and lab
The student workplaces are reserved for 4th and 5th year students at the Department of Energy and Process Engineering (EPT).
The Department has a clean desk policy for all the student workplaces. This means that no student has a permanent desk, and all students need to clear their desk everyday. There are lockers available in the reading room for your belongings (bring your own padlock). NB: the engineers of the future need peace and quiet to work. Please bring your talk and whispering outside in the hall, to a group room or a cantina nearby.
Access to the buildings at EPT
To get access you must send an e-mail with your name and student card number to the Department Office.
Access to laboratories at EPT
Many students have laboratory work, which requires lab access. After you have completed a mandatory HES course and guided tour, you need the approval of your supervisor. See info on access to EPT's laboratories.
Student social area (in No: "identitetsareal")
There are social areas for EPT students according to which building you have your assigned student workplace.
As a Master's student at EPT with a student workplace in Varmeteknisk, you have access to the student social area in VA1 in Varmetekniske laboratorier, Kolbjørn Hejes v. 1B.
Student representatives at EPT
Master's and Bachelor's students have representatives in the extended management group at EPT.
Alumni network group
We invite students and former students to join the network group "NTNU Alumni Energi- og prosessteknikk".
