The Hermann Rietschel Institute (HRI) of the Technical University of Berlin goes back to Rietschel's appointment to the Royal Technical University of Charlottenburg in 1885. It is the world's oldest university research institute in the field of heating, ventilation and air conditioning.

Mr. Hermann Rietschel is one of the founders of a new discipline in the area of mechanical engineering – the field of heating, ventilation and air conditioning. He was elected as the director of the world’s first chair for “Ventilation and heating” at the Royal Technical College Berlin (Königlich Technische Hochschule zu Berlin) on July 13th 1885.

He created a scientific foundation for the already wide spread industrial application of heating and ventilation systems by developing calculation methods for the dimensioning of reliable and economical plants. Furthermore his testing facilities became reputable quickly among German-speaking countries. The testing procedures included quality and performance measurements for components and entire plants.
