Eindhoven, Noord-Brabant, Nederland Eindhoven University of Technology Voltijd

Job Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and talented PhD candidate to join our research team at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). The candidate will contribute to advancing the understanding of high-temperature fluidization in the context of iron powder energy storage.

Research Focus

The research will focus on the hydrodynamics of fluidized beds operating at high temperatures and in the presence of hydrogen gas. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with a unique experimental setup that allows for high-resolution optical access to a pseudo-2D fluidized bed, operating at temperatures up to 800 °C.

Theoretical Framework

We seek to develop a new theoretical framework to describe fluidization under these extreme conditions, considering factors such as inter-particle forces, van der Waals interactions, and electrostatic effects. For this purpose, CFD-DEM modelling (discrete particle modelling) will be used, based on a model that is already present in our group, but which requires expansion and validation for the purposes of this study.

Collaboration and Support

This PhD position is a collaboration with other members of our research group as well as members of the Power and Flow group at the Mechanical Engineering faculty. Moreover, we closely work together with industrial users of the metal fuels technology.

Professional Development

Researchers of our group participate in various courses related to their field of work, take part in national and international conferences and congresses, and report to the project user committee throughout the PhD contract. Besides the project described above, a small part of your time will be tasked with assisting with chemical engineering education duties.

Requirements and Qualifications

We are looking for talented, motivated and enthusiastic MSc or engineer with a background in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering or applied physics. A strong background in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and/or particle technology is essential. The ideal candidate also has demonstrated proficiency in numerical modelling, particularly Discrete Element Models (DEM). You should be comfortable to work or learn to work with experimental setups and data analysis. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team are required. Strong communication skills in English, both written and verbal, are essential.

Employment Conditions

We offer a challenging job for four years in a highly motivated team at a dynamic and ambitious University. You will be part of a highly profiled multidisciplinary collaboration where expertise of a variety of disciplines comes together.

Benefits and Support

We offer you a meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

  • Full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate evaluation (go/no-go) after nine months. You will spend 10% of your employment on teaching tasks.
  • Salary and benefits (such as a pension scheme, paid pregnancy and maternity leave, partially paid parental leave) in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, scale P (min. €2,872 max. €3,670).
  • A year-end bonus of 8.3% and annual vacation pay of 8%.
  • High-quality training programs and other support to grow into a self-aware, autonomous scientific researcher. At TU/e we challenge you to take charge of your own learning process.
  • An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children's day care and sports facilities.
  • An allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
  • A Staff Immigration Team and a tax compensation scheme (the 30% facility) for international candidates.
