About Wilhelm von Oechelhäuser Jr. and the Academic Association Hütte eV (source: wikipedia):

Justus Wilhelm Oechelhaeuser Jr. (*4. January 1850 in Frankfurt; † 31. May 1923 in Dessau) was a German engineer and entrepreneur. #

Life and work: His father was Wilhelm Oechelhaeuser (1820–1902), his mother was Emma Reinbach (* 21. September 1823 in Hemer; † 4. April 1876 in Dessau). He attended the Friedrichswerder secondary school and the commercial academy in Berlin. He then completed an internship in a machine factory in Cologne. As a senior engineer and partner, he joined his uncle Otto Oechelhaeuser's gas plant construction factory. In 1881 he moved to the German Continental Gas Company in Dessau as a senior engineer.

Instead of coupling steam engines and generators to generate electricity, he developed a process for coupling gas combustion and electricity generation. For practical implementation, he commissioned Hugo Junkers to build a corresponding machine in 1888. Together, Oechelhaeuser and Junkers founded the gas engine research institute in 1889. Oechelhaeuser & Junkers, which produced one of the first opposed piston engines in 1892. The company designed a 200 hp machine that the “Berlin-Anhaltische Maschinenbau AG Dessau” built. In order to make greater practical use of the development, the first large 600 hp electric central station was built on behalf of the Union Electricity Company in Berlin between 1898 and 1900. In 1899, Oechelhaeuser sold his patents to “Deutsche Kraftgas GmbH”. Oechelhäuser's largest machine was built by the Borsig company and produced 1,800 hp. In collaboration with Karl Steinbecker, Oechelhaeuser also designed a standing double-piston two-stroke engine with an output of 1000 hp with a directly coupled electric generator. He later further developed his machines technically. Ultimately, his developments were able to displace the steam engine as a large power engine.

As early as 1890, he succeeded his father as general director of the German Continental Gas Company. He retained this post until 1912 and was chairman of the supervisory board from 1917 until his death. In 1902 and 1903 he was also chairman of the Association of German Engineers (VDI).

In June 1906, Wilhelm von Oechelhäuser was awarded the Red Eagle Order, third class. Like his father and brother, he was a member of the Dessau Freemason Lodge Esiko zum rising light.


The Academic Association Hütte e. v. is a non-profit organization in Berlin. It was founded in Berlin in 1846 and was briefly called Die Hütte, and from around 1864 it was just called Hütte. He has been publishing the engineering book of the same name since 1857. The purpose of the corporation is to promote science as well as the education and training of students, particularly in the field of engineering and student assistance. Students from all disciplines can be members. The association is a publisher of engineering books. The most famous factory hut - The engineering knowledge is also called the basic hut.

History: The 16th May 1846 is considered the founding day of the association, which lasted until it was renamed “Hütte” on November 11th. In December 1847 it was still called the Association of Pupils of the Royal Prussian Industrial Institute, the predecessor of the TU Berlin. However, the name has no direct connection to mining and metallurgy. After some initial difficulties, the association had reached a number of 120-150 members in 1853. At this point people also began to collect technical drawings from engineering.

Members of the works founded the Association of German Engineers (VDI) in Alexisbad in 1856.

Since 1857, the Hütte has acted as a publisher of technical-scientific manuals, in particular the Hütte paperbacks of the specialist book of the same name, Hütte - Das Ingenieurwissen (34. Edition, December 2012).

On the occasion of the 75th At the foundation festival of the AV Hütte Berlin in Wernigerode in 1921, the AV Hütte Berlin, AV Hütte Stuttgart and AV Darmstadt founded the Wernigerode Association (WV). In 1933, the two associations of non-colored corporations, the Black Ring (SR) and the Wernigeroder Association (WV), merged to form the Wernigeroder Black Ring (WSR), to which a total of 15 corporations at technical colleges and universities belonged. Over the years, the AV Hütte developed into a non-profit organization with a connection character. Therefore, in contrast to many other non-hitting, non-colored, non-political and non-denominational student associations, the “Hütte” no longer belongs to a higher-level umbrella organization.

Since 1948, in addition to the Aktivitas in Berlin, there has also been an Aktivitas in Karlsruhe. As a result of the 1968 student movement, women have also been admitted since the mid-1970s. The association now maintains clubhouses with student apartments in Berlin-Charlottenburg, Berlin-Spandau and Karlsruhe.

The hut maintains friendly contacts with the Hütte Stuttgart academic association, but both associations are independent of each other.

In Berlin, the hut also has an active water sports department, which, among other things, sails and maintains the traditional ship Salamander VI (45er national cruiser from 1923).
