Phd Position Wide Area Protection and Control Applications

3 dagen geleden

Delft, Nederland TU Delft Voltijd

**PhD Position Wide Area Protection and Control Applications**:
**_Are you interested in working in a dynamic team consisting of academic and industrial partners, and contributing to the ongoing energy transition by doing research with a high level of scientific._**:
The principal constraining factor on network capacity is the thermal limit of the conductor and therefore, there has been widespread testing and implementation of both sensor-based and sensor-less Dynamic Line Rating technology (with appropriate protective relaying), which monitors the Dynamic Thermal Rating of the line, based on current-, temperature-, or sag measurements resulting from loading and weather conditions.

About the department

The research in the Department of Electrical Sustainable Energy is inspired by the technical, scientific, and societal challenges originating from the transition towards a more sustainable society and focuses on four areas:

- DC Systems, Energy Conversion and Storage (DCE&S)
- Photovoltaic Materials and Devices (PVMD)
- Intelligent Electrical Power Grids (IEPG)
- High Voltage Technologies (HVT)

The Electrical Sustainable Energy Department provides expertise in these areas throughout the entire energy system chain. The department owns a large ESP Laboratory assembling High Voltage testing, DC Grids testing environment, and large RTDS that is actively used for real-time simulation of future electrical power systems, AC and DC protection and wide-area monitoring and protection.

The Intelligent Electrical Power Grid (IEPG) group, headed by Professor Peter Palensky, works on the future of our power system. The goal is to generate, transmit and use electrical energy in a highly reliable, efficient, stable, clean, affordable, and safe way. IEPG integrates new power technologies and smart controls, which interact with other systems and allow for more distributed and variable generation.

**Job requirements**
- Electrical power system operation and system integrity protection schemes
- Affinity with programming.
- Mastering EMT-based software tools.
- Knowledge and mastering RTDS is a strong benefit to this project.
- Good analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Excellent writing skills.

**TU Delft (Delft University of Technology)**

Delft University of Technology is built on strong foundations. As creators of the world-famous Dutch waterworks and pioneers in biotech, TU Delft is a top international university combining science, engineering and design. It delivers world class results in education, research and innovation to address challenges in the areas of energy, climate, mobility, health and digital society. For generations, our engineers have proven to be entrepreneurial problem-solvers, both in business and in a social context.

Challenge. Change. Impact

**Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science**

The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) brings together three scientific disciplines. Combined, they reinforce each other and are the driving force behind the technology we all use in our daily lives. Technology such as the electricity grid, which our faculty is helping to make completely sustainable and future-proof. At the same time, we are developing the chips and sensors of the future, whilst also setting the foundations for the software technologies to run on this new generation of equipment - which of course includes AI. Meanwhile we are pushing the limits of applied mathematics, for example mapping out disease processes using single cell data, and using mathematics to simulate gigantic ash plumes after a volcanic eruption. In other words: there is plenty of room at the faculty for ground-breaking research. We educate innovative engineers and have excellent labs and facilities that underline our strong international position. In total, more than 1000 employees and 4,000 students work and study in this innovative environment.
