Internship in applied simulations 80 - Zurich, Zurich, Schweiz - Hitachi Energy AG

Beschreibung

Objective of the internship is to carry out thermal-fluid-dynamic simulations to evaluate the performances of a GCB during operation under steady state and transient electrical loads. Additionally, 1D simulation is applied to speed up the simulation process for parameter studies. The simulations will be carried out with the software Ansys Maxwell, Fluent and Dymola.

The candidate will receive dedicated assistance and support from the Hitachi Energy engineers and scientists. Optional is the planning/design of validation experimental tests in collaboration with the Hitachi Energy Technology Center Team and Hitachi Energy Corporate Research Center.

Your responsabilities

• Thermo-fluid-dynamic simulation to assess performances of a GCB by means of the software Ansys Maxwell and Fluent
• Improvement of 1D simulation software in Dymola
• Data post-processing, analysis and evaluation of the results
• Propose improvements to the simulated case in collaboration with the Hitachi Energy team

Your background

• Background in fluid-dynamics and thermal management
• CAD knowledge
• CFD background (ANSYS FLUENT is a plus)
• Fluency in written and spoken English, German is a plus
• Ability to work in a team, as well as willingness to handle responsibilities independently
