Job Description

At TU Delft, we are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team in the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science. The successful 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 (power electronics), and electro mechanics.

The PhD researcher will 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 redundancy design requirements and extreme operation conditions of electric aircraft will be considered.

The PhD researcher will be jointly supervised by Dr. Wenli Shi and Prof. Pavol Bauer. The research will be conducted in a collaborative environment with access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.

The successful candidate will have a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering and knowledge and interest in power electronic converters and DC power systems. Experience in hardware design and implementation is also required. Good English language and communication skills are necessary to closely cooperate with colleagues and students as well as write project documents.

The PhD researcher will be offered a 4-year period of employment in principle, with a salary and benefits in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities. The TU Delft Graduate School provides an inspiring research environment with an excellent team of supervisors, academic staff, and a mentor.
