PhD Position in DC Circuit Breaker for Electric Aircraft

2 maanden geleden


Delft, Zuid-Holland, Nederland TU Delft Voltijd
Job Description

The Department of Electrical Sustainable Energy at TU Delft is seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to work on the design of a reliable, fast, and compact DC circuit breaker for electric aircraft. The research will focus on several aspects of DC protection systems, including fault identification and localization, current limiter, circuit breaker topology, and circuit breaker multi-objectives-multi-physics optimization design.

The PhD candidate will be part of the DC Systems, Energy Conversion and Storage (DCE&S) group, which is responsible for research and education in the fields of DC systems, high voltage technology, energy storage, electronic power conversion, and electro mechanics. The group is currently active in applications such as Direct Current distribution and transmission grids and microgrids, electrification of mobility (charging of electric vehicles), and renewable generation of electrical energy.

Requirements
  • A Master's degree in Electric Engineering.
  • Knowledge and interest in power electronic converters and DC power systems.
  • Experience in hardware design and implementation.
  • Appreciation of teamwork, good social skills, and the ability to function in international circles.
  • A curiosity-driven mindset, the ability to learn new things, and a passion for (doing) research.
  • Good English language and communication skills (written and oral) in order to closely cooperate with colleagues and students as well as write project documents.
Conditions of Employment

The PhD candidate will be offered a 4-year period of employment in principle, but in the form of 2 employment contracts. An initial 1.5 year contract with an official go/no go progress assessment within 15 months. Followed by an additional contract for the remaining 2.5 years assuming everything goes well and performance requirements are met.

Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, increasing from € 2770 per month in the first year to € 3539 in the fourth year. As a PhD candidate, you will be enrolled in the TU Delft Graduate School. The TU Delft Graduate School provides an inspiring research environment with an excellent team of supervisors, academic staff, and a mentor. The Doctoral Education Programme is aimed at developing your transferable, discipline-related, and research skills.

About the Department

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 Department provides expertise in each of these areas throughout the entire energy system chain. The department owns a large ESP laboratory assembling High Voltage testing, DC Grids testing environment, and a 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.
