Student* with Thesis (optional) Modeling and Validating Cooling Systems
Our primary focuses at Fraunhofer IWES are on wind energy and hydrogen technologies. Our institute is home to more than 300 scientists and employees as well as over 100 students from over 30 countries pursuing careers in applied research and development at nine sites. We secure investments in technological developments through validation, shorten innovation cycles, accelerate certification procedures, and increase planning accuracy by means of innovative measurement methods.
You will be part of the group »Test Planning and Evaluation« at our site in Bremerhaven. At present, our team consists of four research associates and several students. Our group focuses on experimental and theoretical investigations of wind turbine nacelles at both the component and system levels. Validation of nacelle components is carried out through both test rigs and simulations. Become an active member of the team; we are keen to hear your ideas! As an international oriented IWES-team, we highly appreciate an open exchange, whether this be in German or English. Respectful cooperation is also very important to us. You are wondering what you can bring to the team?
What you will do
You are about to join us as we expand our test rig capabilities, which involves making modifications to the cooling system. This system will need to be extended and integrated into the main control system. You will have the chance to directly contribute to these efforts. You will be modeling and simulating a new cooling system for our wind turbine nacelle test rigs, and you will support the validation of the cooling system for an actual wind turbine. You will work closely with our control teams, assessing the system's capabilities and limitations while combining independent research with hands-on validation efforts. Sounds like a lot? No problem, our team will always support you.
What you bring to the table
You are studying Mechanical Engineering or a similar subject with focus on fluid mechanics and thermodynamics in a bachelor or master program. You have a strong foundation in fluid mechanics and heat transfer principles. You are confident in your ability to read and interpret Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID). With solid proficiency in English and/or German, you bring a valuable skill set to the table. Maybe you even have a basic knowledge of a simulation software.
What you can expect
We offer various opportunities to join us as a student. Whether it is an internship, where you gain a comprehensive insight into the areas of work, or the role of a student assistant, which is easy to combine with your studies. Are you looking for an exciting topic for your thesis and do you want to delve deeply into a topic scientifically? Together, we will find the right path for you! We know that studying can also be very demanding and requires a certain level of flexibility. That is no problem here, as – in agreement with your colleagues – you can decide flexibly what days and hours to work. Temporarily, you can even work remotely, depending on the job.
