The Opportunity

The design of high voltage (HV) devices, such as gas circuit breakers (CB) and gas insulated switchgear (GIS), requires – among others –simulations and experiments for verification of insulation and switching performance. Additionally, the research activities in the area of gas circuit breakers and gas insulated switchgear are enhanced by various computer-aided-engineering tools. The aim of the internship is to contribute to the design, preparation of the test setups, perform simulations, as well as experimental data post-processing and analysis. The superior goal is the achievement of high-end quality of the product. The duration of the internship is 6 to 12 months.

How you'll make an impact

• Working in a project for pre-product development

• Simulations (electric fields, mechanical stresses, thermal behavior etc.)

• Preparation of the experiments and post-processing of the experimental results

• CAD support for prototyping

Your background

• Enrolled student in physics, electrical/mechanical engineering, or a related subject (advanced B.Sc. Or M.Sc. Course)

• Fluency in written and spoken English

• Team player and well organized

• Creative and able to work autonomously

• Proficiency with MATLAB, CAD tools, COMSOL or ANSYS package is a plus

• Laboratory and experimental experience area is of advantage
