  The compact and versatile linear accelerator-based test facility FLUTE (Ferninfrarot Linac- Und Test-Experiment) is operated at KIT. Its primary goal is to serve as a platform for a variety of accelerator R\&D studies like the generation of strong ultra-short terahertz pulses. The amplitude of the generated coherent THz pulses is proportional to the square number of particles in the bunch. With the transverse emittance a measure for the transverse particle density can be determined. It is therefore a vital parameter in the optimization for operation. In a systematic study, the transverse emittance of the electron beam was measured in the FLUTE injector. A detailed analysis considers different influences such as the bunch charge and compares this with particle tracking simulations carried out with ASTRA. In this contribution, the key findings of this analysis are discussed.
