About Us

We are a start-up located in Trondheim, Norway. The goal of ThermoPhys is to make recent advances and developments from research on CCS, hydrogen and ammonia accessible and useful to the industry and accelerate the green transition.

Mission & Vision

ThermoPhys was founded with a clear purpose: to make advanced thermophysical models accessible to both research and industry. Our goal is to improve safety and efficiency in processes that handle complex mixtures and carbon storage. We envision a future where technology and science work seamlessly together, and where accurate models support smarter decisions and greener solutions. At ThermoPhys, our work goes beyond coding and calculations, it’s about building trust in the data and insights our tools provide, and making complex processes understandable and reliable for those who rely on them every day.

ThermoPhys enables integrated analysis of hydrogen systems by combining accurate thermo-physical modeling with energy efficiency and safety evaluation. This supports informed engineering decisions related to compression, liquefaction, transport, and storage, where efficiency, safety, and operability are tightly coupled.

Company background
Team

We build on a strong foundation of scientific research. Our models and tools are built on decades of work in thermodynamics, phase behavior, and transport phenomena. Several team members come from NTNU and SINTEF, where they have contributed to open research codes and industrial simulation software like OLGA. This gives us unique insight into how theoretical models can be applied in real-world processes. Our approach combines rigorous scientific calculations with modern software development, ensuring that both researchers and engineers can rely on the results. Science underpins everything we do, but the goal is always to make it practical, understandable, and usable in real-world operations.
