Job description
Ghent University is a top 100 university worldwide and one of the major universities in Belgium, with more than 44,000 students and 15,000 staff members. The Electrical Energy Laboratory (EELAB) at UGent received several research funds from FWO (Fonds voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek, Flanders), European union and Flanders make for conducting research about “High-performance electric machines including recycled and/or additive manufactured parts”.
The aim of the research is to develop and validate smart parameterized multiphysics models for the electric machines including recycled and/or additive manufactured parts. As a PhD student, you will contribute to the development of parameterized models for modeling electromagnetic behavior of the electric machines such as axial flux machines and permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance machines. In addition, the thermal and mechanical behaviors will be checked for the designed electric machines. Moreover, experimental validation will be conducted to the check the performance of the electric machines.
The initial contract duration will be one year, in which you are hired as a PhD researcher. The contract can be extended to 4 years in total, under the condition of a positive evaluation after the initial period. Ghent University offers an attractive salary with additional benefits, a positive and inspiring working environment and training possibilities. You will work at the Electrical Energy Laboratory in the Tech Lane Ghent Science Park in Zwijnaarde.
Job profile
- You hold a master of science in electromechanical or electrical engineering.
- You are motivated, creative and have a passion for academic research. You have an affinity with both experimental research and simulation software.
- You have a strong technical knowledge, expertise and experience in the domain of electric machines, especially multiphysics simulations of electric machines.
- You have good communication skills in English.
- You like challenging scientific research in a multidisciplinary and international context.
How to apply
Send your CV and motivation letter to [email protected] before March 20, 2024; please write in the subject of the e-mail Students.
