Once again, I need some help with translations. I need to know the
"official" forms of name for: Combustion Chemistry Research Group,
*Abo Akademi University. and for: Laboratory of Heating and Air
Conditioning, Technical University of Denmark. (Danmarks tekniske
h/ojskole.)
E-mail, please.
Tusen tack!

Please note that the official capitalization of the Technical University of
Denmark has been changed to
Danmarks Tekniske H/ojskole (that is, all three words starting with upper
case).
The Danish name of the university used to be abbreviated DtH but it is now DTH.

This change is due to a general change in Danish capitalization rules, where it
is now the case that all "significant" words in a name should begin with an
uppercase letter. Less significant words should still begin with a lovercase
letter. For example, "Instituttet for Datateknik" (Department of Computer
Science).
